 Cologne bottles, made of deposit of silver on glass, with stoppers after the style of Louis XIV, have just made their appearance. The silver is laid on so as to give an odd cut glass effect.
 Five turQuoises in the form of a star, with diamond in the center, is the design for a new pendant. The points of the star are tipped with diamonds and single turquoises are set between the intersections of the points.
 For the toilet table a silver powder box with an entirely new shape has made its appearance It is much hatter and larger around than the old style. Gold lining, a tiligree oxidiged cover and chased oxidized body add to its attractions.

Its rim is a continuous group of cupids tossing in a wreath of roses, and the dial is quaintly set off with figures of statu- ary lying broken and disordered. For hands it has pair of ivory scissors. The whole rests on Q Akun and crossbones.
