e I,
One of the most beautiful and elabo-
rately fitted up jewelry stores, in, this
section, or the South, is the establish
ment Of Alessrs. c. F. Greenwood &
Bro. on Main street Several months
ago this wlde-awake firm conceived the
idea of re-ftting their store, No. S1S
Main street, where for years they have
successfully conducted the jewelry bus
mess In a style and manner in keeping
with the rapidly growing Improvements
OF the age, and to say that they have
succeeded beyond their most sanguine
expectations would be putting 1t very
mildly. i Is certainly q gem In beauty
to be admired by all. The entire interior
of the establishment has undergone a
radical change, and one cannot visit 1t
WITHOUT being at once impressed with
the richness and symmetry of It's ar
rangement. Everything is entirely new
and Of the most costly material, which
shows that the proprietors have an eye
to business.
The ceiling is of Steel richly enam-
elled in white, and shows off to splen-
did advantage from the light reflected
from large skylights at the rear. The
store is supplied with solid mahogany
wall cases, counters. stair rail and
newell posts and balusters, mahogany
stools and tables, and French plate
glass mirrors. The floor thing Is we'll
executed and the painting and WALL
paperinE are very artistic in style,
standing out in bold relief, and must
be seen to be appreciated.
The store Is furnished with the latest
and most approved system of electric
lights, and the building Illuminated at
night presents a scene of rare enchant-
ment. One of the most attractive fea-
lures is the onyx work and mirror pam
cling of the handsome show windows.
They are marvels of beauty and re-
fleet the highest credit on the we'll
known artist, Mr.. B. A. Richardson.
Taken altogether the Jewelry Casket
is without exception one Of the pref
test and most unique establishments
in Norfolk, and viii doubtless compete
in appearance, II not excel, any SINH
lar store In the State.
The general contractor for the work
is Mr.. c. NJ. Miller. The mahogany
cases, counters, stair rails. newell posts,
balusters, door and window cas-
ing, mahogany stools and tables
and plate glass mirrors We're furnished
by Reinle Bros. & Salmon, Baltimore.
The thing was done by c. A. Nash &
'ooit, eHe painting Dy Is. a. tlcnardSOn,
the paper-hanging by a. Stahl. and the
electric light wiring by Henry & Hit,
all of Norfolk.
The entire Improvements We're put in
at n cost Of nearly s6,O00
