This beautifully bound four-volume Danish edition of One Thousand and One Nights (1001 Nat) is a late 19th-century publication, issued in 1895–96 by Det Schubotheske Forlag in Copenhagen. Based on Valdemar Thisted’s Danish adaptation, the work includes introductions and notes by J. Østrup, with decorative illustrations by Hans Nic. Hansen.

The set is bound in an elegant half-leather style, featuring richly toned red spines with gilt-stamped titles and ornamental detailing, paired with marbled boards in deep blue and red hues. The craftsmanship reflects the high standards of bookbinding from the period, giving the volumes both durability and aesthetic appeal.

Internally, the typography is classic and refined, with clean layouts that enhance readability while preserving the historical character of the text. As a complete four-volume set, it represents the full scope of the legendary collection of Middle Eastern folk tales, including the famous stories of Scheherazade.

This edition is not only a literary treasure but also a decorative antique object, embodying the romance of storytelling and the artistry of 19th-century book production. Ideal for collectors of antiquarian books, Scandinavian editions, or those drawn to the timeless allure of The Arabian Nights.
