Concerning the
"BOnheur du Jour-
AU Quatriente


A certain type of small and exqui-
sitely fine desk in the new collection
of French antiques, Au Quatrieme,
is known as "bonlleltr du jour"-hap-
piness of the day. This charming
name is completely in character with
the delicate fineness of these little
pieces of old furniture.
For example, there is one that was
unpacked yesterday, one of fine
grained fruit wood, curiously smooth
and hard of surface, and the color of
old mahogany. This desk is built
upon four very slender tapering legs,
with a small upright compartment
like that of an old secretary contain
ing four tiny drawers and resting
upon the desk proper, with its larger
drawer and leaf for writing.
The little compartment has a mar
BILE top. The whole piece is ever so
tiny and delicate. Price, 1886.
Another desk of this type has two
doors containing mirrors in place of
the four tiny drawers. This "bon-
heur du jour" is little larger than
the one described above, but 1t, too,
is very small and delicate. $500.
These desks are typical of the col
lection of fine antique French desks,
beds and tables. There is a delicacy
and fineness about all the pieces in
this new collection achieved by pa
tient and long searching by the coll
lectors. Fourth Floor, Old Building.
