Book Description Hardbound. Black cloth boards with black pictorial DJ, 196pp, 145 color illustrations. Text is in German and English. With this documentation of the Eggloffstein Cutlery Collection a treasure is brought to light which was completely unknown until now. This collection has been at Wartburg for 150 years. In her essay on table manners and customs, Jutta Krauss provides a survey of changing dinner habits and practices from the Middle Ages through the 20th century. Evolving table culture developed the simple wooden spoon into the most elaborate variety of courtly representation in dining implements. The Egloffstein Collection demonstrates the unique artistic creativity of European cutlery from three centuries through its comprehensiveness and diversity. VG, DJ has some minor tearing around the edges and shelf wear from doing it's job. Seller Inventory # 128839
