The industrial arts of the Anglo-Saxons

Baye, J. (Joseph), baron de, 1853-1931, Harbottle, Thomas Benfield, d. 1904 · 1893 · London. S. Sonenschein & co. New York, Macmillan & co. · 2 pictures

The Industrial Arts of the Anglo-Saxons, published in London and New York in 1893 by Joseph Baye, baron de Baye, and Thomas Benfield Harbottle, is a scholarly survey of early English metalwork and pottery aimed at antiquarians and students. The first picture is a line engraving of a garnet-inlaid Anglo-Saxon buckle from Gilton near Sandwich, Kent, with its dense interlace and ring-shaped plate, and the second is a drawing of a hand-thrown pot with cross-hatched bands and a rim, both useful to designers seeking historical ornament built from repeating geometric pattern.
