Each leaf is protected by a tissue sheet on which the name and price are printed so that, when the tissue lies on the illustrated leaf, the text details match up with the picture.

The illustrated leaves are all in excellent condition. \u003cbr\u003eWilliam Hair Haseler founded his company in 1870, specialising in gold and silver work. In 1875, Arthur Liberty opened a small shop in Regent Street in London. Liberty's, with its finger on the pulse of the Arts and Crafts Movement and Art Nouveau quickly became the most fashionable shop in London. In 1898, Liberty and Haseler formed a partnership and then, in 1899, they began using Archibald Knox as one of their principal designers. Knox worked and studied with Christopher Dresser and, like Dresser, managed to bring together elements of Art Nouveau, Modernism and Arts and Crafts design. It is thought that Knox produced some 5,000 designs for Haseler and Liberty's.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vrb_note\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vrb_prov\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vrb_biblio\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"W.H.HASELER Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55926532309369,"sku":"4653","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1484\/0910\/files\/4653.Haseler_1.jpg?v=1767711945"},{"product_id":"5260","title":"The Hamilton Palace Collection.
