A trade pattern book of stamped zinc and copper architectural ornaments, published in Paris around 1870 by the Bleve firm of rue Saint-Martin for builders and metalworkers. The pictures are flat numbered plates of friezes, cornices and borders, with price marks in the margins, showing repeating bands of foliage, scrolls, egg-and-dart and rounded moulding profiles a designer could adapt for decorative edges.
