Lehrbuch Zürcherische Seidenwebschule Dekomposition
1908
From the collection of Archaeology and Museum Baselland
This is a dark, worn book cover with gold lettering. The words *"Zürcherische Seidenwebschule"* and *"DEKOMPOSITION"* stand out in the center. Below, smaller text reads *"II. Kurs 1908/1909"* and *"Karl Slubacher"* in the corner. The cover looks old, with faded spots and cracks. The title hints at a weaving school in Zurich, Switzerland. The word *"Dekomposition"* might mean breaking down designs into parts—likely for silk weaving. The book’s age and condition suggest it’s been used a lot. If you like old craft books, check out ethnology to see how objects like this fit into cultural history.
