Vintage French Leather Book Set in Cognac Brown with Art Deco Gilt Spines

A sleek, matching set of four French books in warm cognac and caramel leather, each spine decorated with the same bold Art Deco design of stacked gilt rules and rectangles. Together, the repeating geometric pattern makes a striking, cohesive display for a bookshelf, mantel, or bar cart, or any space with a Parisian, Jazz Age feel.

These interwar editions bring together some favorite names in French writing: Colette's La Retraite Sentimentale, a novel by the Montmartre bohemian Francis Carco, the 1933 reportage of journalist and adventurer Joseph Kessel, and a historical novel about Madame de Montespan, the famous mistress of Louis XIV.

Together they measure approximately 7.25 x 4 inches.

This set includes:
🍂 La Retraite Sentimentale, by Colette (Paris, Éditions Baudinière)
🍂 Rien qu'une Femme, by Francis Carco (Paris, Albin Michel)
🍂 Marchés d'Esclaves, by Joseph Kessel (Paris, Les Éditions de France, 1933)
🍂 Les Secrets de la Montespan, by Armand Praviel and Jean Douyau (Paris, Les Éditions de France, 1936)

**Condition**
The Carco spine is split along both edges with chipping at the top, and the other spines show light rubbing and small chips at the ends.
