Alcune decorazioni di nobili sale ed altri ornamenti is a 1787 ornament pattern book by Giocondo Albertolli, published in Milan for architects, stuccoists and decorators working in Italy. Its plates show ceiling compartments, friezes, cornices and a Corinthian capital drawn in fine engraved line and tonal shading. A designer could draw on the repeating classical motifs of acanthus, rosettes, garlands and coffered panels for period interiors and ornamental borders.
