Is like all other manufactured products,-low grade, medium and high class.
 The low grades are not cut deep nor exact, and are dull in appear ance and of light weight; the me dium grades are done by better class of workmen and more pains is taken with them.
 The high class grades are done by artists in their line, the cut tings are deep and regular, and there is plenty of weight.
