| BINDING DESCRIPTION | |
| BINDING TERM | Cambridge Binding |
| DECORATION | Check –-Cambridge style, or Cambridge panel style: A style of bookbinding popular at the end of the 17th century and beginning of the 18th. Characterized by three concentric frames (including a perimeter frame) formed with gilt or blind fillets or rolls, with fleurons or other small tools anchoring the corners. The space defined by the frames is often further delineated by sprinkling or toning with acid. Earlier versions of this pattern do not have the multitonal effect. This design is common to all of England, not just Cambridge. |
