Chippendale bindings
A style of book decoration, where the books were
generally covered in red morocco, and were tooled
in gold with elaborate rococo borders of swirls
and acanthus leaves enclosing areas dispersed with
meshes of dotted lines. Incorporated in all this
were various figured tools, including dancing
angels, trumpeters, doves, fruit, musicians,
swooping phoenixes, etc. See also: "CHINESE" CHIPPENDALE
