Textiles are one of Switzerland's oldest industries. Cotton and silk has been spun and woven in homework in the rural parts of the country for decades before the textile sector was one of the first to become quickly and fully industrialised. One of the major players in Switzerland's silk trade has been Abraham AG (Abraham Ltd). The company's history dates back to 1878, when Jakob Abraham became a partner in a Zurich-based business. Under the direction of Gustav Zumsteg, who had joined as a partner in 1943, the business became a firm part of post-war Paris Haute Couture as supplier of silk fabrics to the leading fashion houses. The 1960s-80s were the heyday of Abraham AG with the close and personal collaboration between Zumsteg and Yves Saint Laurent from 1961 onwards. This equally successful and glamorous period was followed by a slow but steady decline eventually leading to the company's bankruptcy and liquidation in 2002. 'Soie Pirate: The History and Fabric Designs of Abraham Ltd.'. is a comprehensive history of this fascinating enterprise. Volume one tells the company's story and investigates its importance in the international business of high fashion and in the context of time. Volume two presents a wealth of designs, patterns and samples of the beautiful fabrics designed by Abraham AG but also of the elegant dresses and spectacular gowns the great couturiers like Cristobal Balenciaga, Coco Chanel, Christian Dior, Hubert de Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent or Emanuel Ungaro have created using Abraham's products. Together both volumes bring to life a chapter in the history of high fashion worldwide.

A Jolly Ball - A Treat Ball!
Color: Red + Yellow
In the past, I got my girls a doggie jolly ball. They played with that thing until they tore it apart! I've also gotten them several different, but similar, treat balls over the years. Fast forward to present! I found the best of both worlds! A Jolly Treat Ball! Upon receiving these two balls, first, I was so glad to find that they didn't stink! Literally, no terrible smell! YAY! Second, the jolly treat balls are durable. I placed a large treat in each of the balls and handed them over. Each girl took the ball by the handle and pranced to their desired location to devour their treat! Devour, they did... NOT! Because of the durability and construction of these balls, it took them a good 5 minutes to fully get each morsel of their large cookie! YAY! Once emptied, I asked them to bring it. They each picked up their ball, by the handle and brought it to me. Too cute - they each got just one more treat! Now that they've utilized their jolly treat ball I have yet to see a single tooth mark in the ball. It has withstood their chewing to release the treat and hasn't been marred or scarred by their strong teeth. I've also had the opportunity; after each use, to wash the jolly treat balls. They even withstand a scrubby to get them cleaned! If I could, this "Durable Dog Chew Ball Toy" would get 10 stars! I'm one happy dog momma!

Perfect toy for an active dog!
Color: Large size (7.9")
My dog absolutely loves this ball with handles! It’s quickly become one of his favorite toys, and he gets excited every time we bring it out to play. The vibrant colors are a huge plus—they make it super easy to spot in the grass, which saves a lot of time during outdoor play sessions. The handles are great for interactive play too, especially for tugging and tossing. I’m really impressed with how well it’s holding up. Even with constant pulling, tugging, and rough use, it’s remained durable and hasn’t shown any signs of wearing out. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase—and if my dog could write reviews, it would definitely get his paw stamp of approval! 🐾

Not for strong chewers!
Color: Large size (7.9")
I have an English Springer Spaniel who is 1.5 yrs. She had this torn apart within the first 5 minutes. This is not for strong chewers!
