The covers and spine of an exuberant inlaid mosaic binding of leather backed wooden boards covered with plaques of mother of pearl, tortoise shell, silver, copper and brass. The panels have red morocco borders gilt with a foliage roll. The red morocco spine has wide and narrow gilt rules. Both plaques have elaborate cartouches of geometric, foliate and floral arabesques and a central brass medallion. Fortune, balanced on a winged globe with a cornucopia and drape, decorates the front panel (two small knicks with slight loss). A ruined tower and archway, braced by trees and shrubs, decorates the rear panel.
