A good clean copy of "An Illustrated Companion to the Decorative Arts", edited by Harold Osborne, first published by Oxford University Press in 1975, this copy issued in 1989 by Wordsworth Editions of Ware, Hertfordshire. For reasons explained in the preface, this vast compendium may reasonably be considered as the companion volume to The Oxford Companion to Art , providing as it does an introduction to those arts which are made to serve a practical purpose as opposed to what may be regarded as the Fine Arts. A massive tome, altogether an impressive and valuable academic work of reference. Hard covers, large format, 866 pages, original dust jacket { now rather scruffy }.
