Scalamandre review

This is one of the most beautiful books on Interior Design. It does not have a lot of type to clutter the beautiful photos. It will remain an historical account of an historic company that exposes beautiful fabrics to a discerning clientele.It should be in everyone's library......

The Fascinating Story of Scalamandre

Author Brian Coleman brings his knowledgeable eye to bear on one of the textile world's most distinguished houses, Scalamandre. The result is a pure pleasure for the visual browser. A must for anyone in the design world, this book is also a delight for those of us who are inspired by beautiful fabrics in elegant settings. The photographs by Dan Mayers are as magnificent as the Scalamandre fabrics themselves. Coleman's text is clear, entertaining, and thorough.
