Stockholm 1877. 25x18. VI+162 pp. Printed wrappers, neat later backstrip, old library stamps on front wrapper and title page; otherwise a good copy of a scarce landmark publication. The catalogue of the first major exhibition arranged by Svenska Slöjdföreningen, the Swedish Decorative Arts Association founded in 1845. This was the first Swedish enterprise of its kind, a loan exhibition comprising more than 2000 objects from private collections, categorised into ceramics (the most substantial section), metal work, glass ware, furniture and woodwork, clocks and watches, and enamels, selected by a committe under the guidance of Gustaf Upmark. The descriptive catalogue, edited by Ludvig Looström, was the first Swedish scientific catalogue of applied art. It was not published until after the exhibition was opened, but does not include all objects, some of which were added during the course of the exhibition.
