Neu hervorkommendes Weber Kunst und Bild Buch

Lumscher, Nathaniel · 1709 · in Verlegung Nathanael Lumschers · 54 pictures

A German weaver's pattern book issued by Nathanael Lumscher in 1709, compiling loom drafts and woven-cloth designs for working linen and damask weavers in the trade. The plates are black-and-white grid patterns built from squares, crosses, concentric rings and checkerboard fills, numbered and often paired with threading diagrams along one edge, giving designers modular repeats, halftone-like textures and geometric motifs that scale cleanly.
