Holt (Richard). A Short Treatise of Artificial Stone, as 'tis now made, and Converted into all Manner of Curious Embellishments, and Proper Ornaments, of Architecture: Containing the most Beautiful, the Strongest and the Cheapest Method of Adorning Buildings of all sorts. Being an Excellent and most useful Art, well known to the Ancients, but lost to the World for many ages, now retriev'd, 1st edition, 1730, woodcut headpieces and initials, some spotting, bookplate, all edges gilt, near contemporary black morocco gilt, a little rubbed, 8vo ESTC T85882; Harris BABW, 354. Scarce, only four institutional copies located. Holt, along with Thomas Ripley had patented 'artificial stone' (i.e. burnt clay) in 1722, and before long he was supplying patrons, including Lord Burlington (the book's dedicatee) for his villa and gardens in Chiswick. The book was published in response to Batty Langley's rival artificial stone business, set up in 1729, with the intention of attracting more patrons and claiming the material's great advantages over natural stone in durability, citing examples of Stonehenge, the pyramids and the Sphinx, the latter 'can scarcely be supposed to be made of modern brick'. Although no mention is made in the book or the patent of the ingredients of the compound, the recipe entrusted to John Mowbray and William Bridgeman in 1732 calls for finely ground glass and lead ores to be mixed with clay instead of the usual flint or sand.
