but all sorts of pretty wicker ware
suitable for various parts of the house
is so much sought after that almost
every piece of solid furniture has it's
replica in wicker ware.
For bedrooms, the living room, den

thought of to add comfort to hot

Among the useful pieces is the tea

tray upon wheels, and just the thing
for serving five o'clock tea upon the

at the back is a small basket for sill
