ELECTRO-SILVER PLATE,
IN COMPLETE

BREAKFAST AND DINNER SERVICES.
-Do ROMOLI and HAUSBURG most respectfully an-
nounce, that they have entered into arrangements with
the Patentees for the supply of . ELECTRO-SILVER
PLATED ARTICLES, and, in enumerating the advantages
peculiar to them, solicit the favour of an Inspection of the
Stock. They would particularly direct attention to the fol-
lowing points.

The Material cannot be distinguished from Silver, and
will resist all chemical action from .vegetable or other sub-
stances.
The brilliant appearance bill it- preserved many years,
merely requiring to be Cleaned by the same method'as Sil-
ver, and the Articles may be Replated, at a very moderate
cost, as often as may be required, rendering them equal to
new, an operation hitherto found impracticable.
It is manufactured upon the same principle as Silver, and
the Ornamental and, consequently, more prominent parts
not being filled with Lead, are not liable to he bruised, or to
injury from heat.

The distribution of the coating of Silver by the Electrical
Process, is perfectly equal in all parts: thus essentially dif-
fering from the ordinary Plated Goods, on which the Silver,
in the projecting and more exposed portions, is impover-
ished in the manufacture.

The Silver employed, being entirely free from alloy, will
not so soon tarnish, and is cleaned with much greater
facility. _ _

Any. Article, however varied in form and elaborate in de-
sign, previously unattainable except at a costly rate, may be
produced by this Process, with solid Crests, or other Orna-
ments that may be desired, exactly similar to the roost ex-
pensive Silver Plate.

P. and H. would further observe, that the Prices are ex-
ceedingly moderate; and, confident that their statement will
be found to be borne out to the fullest extent, trust that
their new undertaking will be honoured by the distinguished
patronage conferred upon them in other Branches of their
Business.
