Atelier Handicraft Alphabet Letter Duvallon Metier

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a unique set of alphabetical cubes dating back to 1898, each intricately designed with the letter D and dedicated to the art of gilding. The box contains 30 cubes, with a stunning cover illustrated by H. Roy and a face of 24 cubes dedicated to various metiers or crafts. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in these cubes are truly remarkable, reflecting the skill and dedication of artisans from the late nineteenth century. Each cube represents a different aspect of gilding, highlighting the importance of this traditional craft in society at that time. The unknown publisher behind this set has created a piece that not only serves as an educational tool but also as a work of art in its own right. The private collection where these cubes reside is lucky to have such a rare and historical treasure in their possession. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where handcrafted goods were highly valued and respected. It serves as a reminder of the rich history behind trades like gilding and honors the legacy of those who dedicated their lives to mastering such intricate skills.
