A mismatched trio of antique French leather books in warm brown tones with gilt-tooled spines, offering rich, well-traveled color for a library shelf, ladder, or eclectic vignette.

This eclectic grouping spans more than a century and a half of French printing, from a 1713 Latin ritual book bound for the diocese of Metz, to an early Napoleonic-era German-French dictionary printed in Strasbourg, to Isaac Hayes's polar exploration account Perdus dans les Glaces, published in Paris in 1875, each bound independently in leather with its own gilt tooling.

Together they measure approximately 10.5 x 4.75 inches.

This set includes:
🍂 Perdus dans les Glaces, par Isaac J. Hayes (Hachette, Paris, 1875)
🍂 Rituale Metense (Metz, 1713)
🍂 Nouveau Dictionnaire Allemand-François et François-Allemand, Tome Second (Strasbourg, An IX)
