China and Enamel

"The china and enamel
would in itself make a
complete story. Tea sets
in a Chinese green with
swaying butterflies, offer
ing four size plates and
three kinds of cups, make
an open set of china that
is as remarkable as it is
low in price. Those solid
colored tea sets, splendid
lovely tones that we can
not seem to get in domes-
tic china, and the whole
set of % pieces at $3.50!
"Exquisitely decorated
covered dishes and bowls
One must just tear oneself
away, for everything is one
of note.
"The Pekinese enamel boxes
make a most charming gift.
And there is nothing like this
enamel anywhere else at any,
thing like an approach to these
prices. A lovely enamel box,
A 6 inches in wonderful color
ing, is only $3.50; deep blue
enamel oval box for a dressing
table is only 81, and the most
unusual little boxes built to go
one on top of the other Cor
three separate lovely boxes if so
desired) are $3.50.
"Now, the story must re-
main only half told, for it
is not possible to go into
this lesser priced stock and
mention specific pieces of
striking values and splen-
did qualities without ex-
tending this report to cover
the entire stock"
