Nocq, Henri. LE POINCON DE PARIS. Repertoire des Maitres-Orfevres de la
Juridiction de Paris depuis le Moyen-Age jusqu'a la Fin du XVIIIe siecle.

Paris; Leonce Laget, Edituer: 1968. Limited to 400 sets.

A facsimile of the 1926-1931 limited edition set. Henri Nocq, a very
respected authority on French silver who wrote several other books on the
subject, would find, were he alive today, that no comparable study has
displaced this one as an authoritative reference to Parisian goldsmiths of
the 18th century and their work. This is a small niche of the scholarly
world to be sure, but this set still stands firmly astride it. Hardcovers.
5 volumes. 8.5"x11", 325 ; 370; 441; 291; 96 pages; with numerous b/w
illustrations and plates; several color plates; light wear, but overall a
very nice set. [03134] $1800.00
