Binding

16th century, late, or 17th century, Italian: pasteboards; brown leather, tooled with blind lines and all-over gilt lines and stamps (? including a roll) to form a panel and abstract centrepieces; spine decorated with cross-hatching of blind double lines and a small gilt tool; traces of two pairs of ties of dark brown textile (lost); edges gilt, gauffered (very worn, perhaps from a previous binding). Rebacked in lighter leather, spine re-laid, perhaps later 19th century, Bodleian. 106 × 80–82 × c. 45 mm. (book closed).
