First edition, thus, of this stunning salesman sample case for silk trimmings used in interior design by the famed Franco Scalamandre's designers. These samples include French Tufts, Rosettes, elaborate silk braids, borders, ribbons, tassels, and more, many of them in traditional styles and colours for use in recovering and restoring furnishings, draperies, and other period pieces. Scalamandre (d. 1988) established Scalamandre Silks in 1929 focused on supplying silk fabrics and trims to the growing movement of restoring historic houses and furnishings in the United States. His plant in Long Island City, NY wove historic fabrics to match those acquired by Hearst for San Simeon. He established the Scalamandre Museum of Textiles which thrived until the late 1960s offering beautiful exhibits of historical documents and traditional textiles. His company helped with the restoration of Monticello, and was perhaps best known for their reproductions and restorations of draperies, wallpapers, and upholstery for the Kennedy White House from 1961-1962, and has continued to supply historic fabrics to every administration since.
