  • The Queen's Binder. English, c. 1683. Black goatskin with a central diaper pattern, elaborately gilttooled with floral tools and rolls. This manuscript was bound by a craftsman who worked extensively for Samuel Pepys (who, like Admiral Herbert, worked for the Admiralty), and who is known only as Queen's Binder B, because Catherine of Braganza and Mary of Modena owned examples of his work. On orders and letters written to Admiral Arthur Herbert, 1672–83.
