Description
The Thames and Hudson Manual of BookbindingTo give a book a worthy binding is one of the most satisfying of crafts. Beyond the utility of a good binding, there is a great deal of aesthetic pleasure to be gained from a book that opens easily and flatly, and from the decoration, the harmony of colors, and the brilliance of gold. Arthur Johnson, one of Britain's foremost designer bookbinders, has written a manual of the craft whose clarity and comprehensiveness make it invaluable to the student
To give a book a worthy binding is one of the most satisfying of crafts. Beyond the utility of a good binding, there is a great deal of aesthetic pleasure to be gained from a book that opens easily and flatly, and from the decoration, the harmony of colors, and the brilliance of gold. Arthur Johnson, one of Britain's foremost designer-bookbinders, has written a manual of the craft whose clarity and comprehensiveness make it invaluable to the student and the professional. It covers equipment, tools, and materials; all stages of preparation (end papers, sewing, rounding and backing, edge-gilding, etc.); different binding styles; and the finer points of finishing. The illustrations show not only tools, materials, and processes, but also a selection of striking and beautiful examples of the binder's art, both historic and modern.Binding Type: Paperback

Good purchase
Color: White, Size: 8 Panel
I bought this in white for use in a finished basement to hide equipment on the wall and create a nice space to place a bed. Because it doesn’t need to be moved and the room is temperature controlled, I expect it to last for a long time. The screen is pretty and I like that the woven material is not easily breakable. I’m pleased with the purchase.

Perfect & light weight divider
Color: Charcoal Gray, Size: 8 Panel
I really like this divider. I have it in my bedroom which is also where my "work from home office" is. The divider blocks my bedroom and dresser perfectly. It's very light weight and very easy to move.

Room Divider
Color: Beige, Size: 8 Panel
I received my 8 panel folding divider and realized that I probably should have just ordered the 6 panel one. But it is nice and sturdy and was already put together. I am very pleased with the product.
