Edith Wharton, Fabric Designer?

did Edith Wharton design fabric for Shumacher depicting the fable Le Meunier, son fils and l'ane ? I have come across a beautiful linen tapestry with Edith Wharton listed as a credit.

Thanks, Betsy Jackson 10/23/06

Address of Pavillon Colombe Dear Madams, dear Sirs,

I would like to ask if you may give me the address of Edith Wharton's house in St. Brice sous forêt near by Paris, becaus I would like to visit it.
Or do you have some other information about the house, whether there is a museum etc.?

Thank you very much, I am a fascinated reader of Edith Wharton from Germany

Kind regards

The only information we have is that the house is on the rue Edith Wharton. It's a private residence, so as far as I know there is no museum there.

Macmillan Edition (1907) Madame de Treymes

As part of an auction lot we've come across a first UK edition of Madame de Treymes published by Macmillan in 1907 in orange boards. We can't find references anywhere to this edition - are you able to shed any light for us please? Many thanks. Mark Crocker
