Balzac's Les Chouans, Two-Volume Antique Leather-Bound French Editions, 19th Century

A striking pair of vintage French books bound in deep emerald and forest green leather, with black and teal marbled boards and faded gilt lettering along the spines. This rich, old-world palette is perfect for a study, library shelf, or francophile-inspired vignette.

This set includes:
🌿 Les Chouans, Vol. I
🌿 Les Chouans, Vol. II — suivi de Une Passion dans le Désert

A matching two-volume edition of Balzac's "Les Chouans, ou la Bretagne en 1799," part of his Scènes de la Vie Militaire, with the second volume also including his novella "Une Passion dans le Désert." Bound in classic half-leather style with elegant tooling, this small set brings genuine literary pedigree and old-library charm to any collection.

Dimensions: 7.5 x 2.5 inches (height of tallest book x width of stack when shelved vertically).

The interior pages show noticeable foxing (age spotting) throughout, and the gilt spine lettering is faded and rubbed, consistent with their vintage French leather binding.
