This has to beworked round the gouge lines with a steady hand, and may be fairly hotif it is kept moving. At C is shown a section of a gouge impressionbefore and after the use of this tool. The ground can be dotted in, orotherwise gone over with some small tool to throw up the pattern.
Blind tooling can sometimes be used in combination with gold tooling.
    [Illustration: FIG. 99. ] In the fifteenth century the Venetian binders used little roundels ofsome gesso-like substance, that were bright
...ly coloured or gilt, incombination with blind tooling (see p. 325). This is a method thatmight be revived.
What is known as "leather work" is a further development of blindtooling. This method of decoration has been revived lately, but notgenerally with success. "Leather work" may be divided into twobranches; in one the surface of the leather is cut to outline thepattern, and in the other the leather is embossed from the back, whilewet, and the pattern outlined by an indented line.
