About

Decorate a library, study, or office with this elegant set of antique French leather bound books. Printed in Paris circa 1929 by Maison Larousse and edited by Paul Augé, the complete six-volume set is titled Larousse du XXe Siècle, one of the most celebrated encyclopedic dictionaries of its time.
Each volume is bound in richly textured black leather with a distinctive geometric Art Deco motif, accented with gilt lettering along the spines. The bold graphic pattern and clean typography reflect the refined modern aesthetic of the late 1920s, making the set as visually striking as it is intellectually significant.
The interiors are filled with detailed entries, illustrations, maps, and photographic plates, offering a fascinating glimpse into early 20th century knowledge and culture. The books remain in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with a beautifully preserved patinated leather finish and clean, bright pages.
Perfect for shelf styling, stacking on a coffee table, or adding depth to a curated vignette, this cohesive suite brings both history and timeless French sophistication to any interior.
Dimensions (each): 10″W x 12.75″H
