GOLD SERVICE THAT
RIVALS ROYALTY'S BEST,

The Hofburg in Vienna possesses a
magnificent gold dinner service which.
according to a Paris contemporary, Is
not rfvaled by any royal house. It was
last used during the visit of the Kaiser
and kaiserin to Vienna. The plates,
the dishes. the spoons. knives and forks
are all of solid gold save the epergnes.
which are of silver gilt. Even these
are valued at &c. 800 each. The value
of the whole service is something fabu-
lous. The service is first mentioned in
the inventory of the Austro-Hungarian
imperial treasures toward the end of
the eighteenth century and 1t Is prob
able that 1t was made about that time.
The greater part Of this famous serv-
Ice belongs.to Austria and was made in
Lombardy, which at the period of its
fabrication belonged TO Austria. The
other part, 1t seems, was made in Paris
some time after the Lombard work.
The goldsmith's art as seen in these
treasures is. we are told, unknown to-
day and on some of the chefs-d'oeuvre
the g~oldsmiths were engaged for more
than twelve years. Among the rulers
of the earth who have eaten from this
service was Napoleon when he resided
at Schonbrunn. The service dor is
sufficient for 100 guests, the number
which sat down with the Kaiser. The
table cloth Is woven of one piece and
the design is a succession of the Aus
