Description from the seller
O. Wolff Fourrures — Luxe Fashion Catalog 1911–1912 — Brussels / Paris / London / Leipzig — 18 photographic plates + original price list
Very fine and original luxury catalog from the international fur fashion house O. Wolff Fourrures, issued for the 1911–1912 season, dating from the Belle Époque period just before World War I.
This exclusive client brochure was created for a affluent clientele and presents luxurious fur creations in the fashion of the early 20th century. The publication is characterized by high-quality typography in the Art Nouveau style and an original cord binding, typical of luxury fashion catalogs from this period.
The catalog lists the house’s locations in Brussels (84 Rue de la Montagne), Leipzig, Paris and London, underscoring the international character of the company.
Contents:
- 18 photographic plates (of which 1 double-spread across two pages)
- High-quality photographic printing (photogravure / collotype), integrated into the pages
- Models with names such as Parisette, Réjane, Carmen, Mignon, Bellis, Maggy and Falaise
- Original price list at the back (rarely preserved)
- Price list with, among others, “Pelisses pour hommes” and the mention
“Spécialité de vêtements d'autos pour hommes et dames”, referring to specially designed clothing for motorists — a particularly historic detail from the pioneers of the automobile
- Decorative title page with emblem and frame printing
- Original cord binding
The photographic plates are not loose inserted photographs but high-quality photographic prints that form a single whole with the pages, a valuable and prestigious production technique that was widely used in luxury publications and fashion presentations around 1900.
- Period: 1911–1912
- Provenance: Belgium / international fashion house
- Language: French
- Binding: Original cardboard cover with cord binding
- Dimensions: approx. 33 × 24 cm (estimated)
Condition:
- Good, authentic condition given the age (over 110 years old).
- Cover shows wear, discoloration and deterioration appropriate to the age.
- Interior mainly clean with normal aging signs and some stains.
- Photographic plates in good condition.
- Structure complete and stable.
Special notes:
Catalogs from luxury fashion houses of this period are sought-after collectibles within the fields of fashion history, photography, Belle Époque and Art Nouveau printing. The presence of the original price list increases the collectibility and historical relevance.
A handsome and authentically preserved example of early 20th-century haute couture presentation and commercial photography.
Shipped with careful packing.
