Mon poumon a fait un bruit de bouchon et s'est mis a siffler avec un bruit de glaire (mmmh appetissant) je l'ai senti se degonfler d'un seul coup!! ❋ Pinku-tk (2007)
Ben oui, j'avais super mal a la gorge et a force j'arrivais plus a respirer avec tout ce glaire (desole) alors j'ai toussé pour degager tout ca et pouf plein de sang!! ❋ Pinku-tk (2006)
To give to this leather the elegant finish known as "tree-calf binding", it is first washed with glaire or albumen. ❋ Ainsworth Rand Spofford (N/A)
The method of applying gold lettering is as follows: the back of the book where the title is to go, is first moistened with a sticky substance, as albumen or glaire, heretofore mentioned, laid on with a camel's hair brush. ❋ Ainsworth Rand Spofford (N/A)
Some finishers prefer to use old, evil-smelling glaire, but provided it is a day old, and has been well beaten up, fresh glaire will work quite well. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
It is not suitable for open patterns, where the glaire might show on the surface of the leather. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
It is best to glaire twice, and to lay on a small portion of gold at a time with benzine. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
The impressions of any heavy or solid tools should be given a second coat of glaire when the first has ceased to be "tacky," and if the leather is at all porous, all impressions had better have a second coat. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
The glaire of the edge gilding will help to stop the edges fraying out. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
When the gold is ready, the glaire should be floated on to the edge with a soft brush, and the gold spread evenly over it and left until dry; that is, in a workshop of ordinary temperature, for about an hour. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
As glaire is apt to show and disfigure the leather when dry, it is best to use it as sparingly as possible, and, excepting where the pattern is very close, to confine it to the impressions of the tools. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
The book with the pattern ready prepared, and the glaire sufficiently dry (not sticky), is rubbed lightly with a small piece of cotton-wool greased with a little cocoanut oil. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
When the glaire has ceased to be "tacky," the gold is laid on. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
It is not at all an uncommon thing to see the effect of an otherwise admirably tooled binding spoilt by a dark margin round the tools, caused by the careless use of glaire. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
The finisher should not glaire in more than he can tool the same day. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
For blocking, one coat of glaire will be enough for most leathers. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
It will then be ready for an application of glaire. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
When the leather is nearly, but not quite, dry the impressions of the tools must be painted with glaire. Finishers 'glaire may be made from the white of eggs well beaten up, diluted with about half as much vinegar, and allowed to settle. ❋ Douglas Cockerell (1894)
Et pour quatre onces de succre, prens en de la grosseur d’vne febue, ius de limons plein l’escaille d’vne noix, et vn peu de glaire d’oeuf: mais il faut premier prendre la gomme, et battre tant auec le pilon en vn mortier de marbre blanc ou bien d’erain, qu’elle deuienne comme eau, puis y adiouste ledit ius auec la glaire d’oeuf, en incorporant le tout ensemble. ❋ Wheaton Barbara Ketcham (1983)
