Spine with gilt-ruled raised bands in six compartments, lettered direct in gilt in second, fifth, and at foot of spine. Compartments elaborately blind tooled with zig-zag borders and central floral spray medallions surrounded by rosettes. Boards blind tooled with multiple straight, zig-zag, and rope rules, with foliate gilt stamps to corners of inner panels. Gilt-ruled edges and inner dentelles. All edges gilt. Spines somewhat faded, minor scuffing to boards, occasional foxing. Old auction catalogue description attached to ffep. A resplendent late 18th century English binding in a delicate shade of blue which is prone to fading and seldom found as pristine as it is here.
