First edition illustrated by Byam Shaw in an unusually restrained example of Chivers's celebrated "vellucent" style of binding. Cedric Chivers (1853-1929), one of the most successful bookbinders of his time, developed a new technique for binding books in the 1890s. His elaborate cover designs were painted on paper and then covered by vellum, which had been treated to become translucent. Chivers patented his method in 1898 and used it to create some of the most beautiful books of the fin de siècle. The binder's blind stamp on this copy lists Chivers's address at Gay Street in Bath, meaning that the volume was bound before the move, around the turn of the century, to the larger premises at Portway. Octavo (202 x 134 mm). Frontispiece and illustrations throughout, many full-page, illustrated title page printed in red and black. Contemporary translucent vellum over hand-painted paper, flat spine lettered in gilt, gilt fillet to spine and boards framing floral pink art nouveau design, floral gilt dentelles, patterned endpapers, top edge gilt, fore and bottom edges uncut. Headcap mildly bumped, spine a tad discoloured, binding otherwise fine, edges and outer leaves foxed. A very good copy.
