orable balance Of approximately ST.

ALBUM OF GOLD and
GARNET ON DISPLAY

A rarely beautiful example of the
jewelers. art, and the product of an
.dealist of infinite patience. Such is
the impression one gathers from a
study of the gold and garnet album on
display at the Jenkins jewelry store.
This unique example of solid gold and
Bohemian garnets, in book form, is
IA by Az inches, and is one inch
thick This little volume has six
golden leaves. making IL pages. The
inside covers are also fitted for hold
ing photos, and the book contains IA
of these, all scenes in Vienna, Austria.
from whence this antique was import
ed in 1852.
The golden album recently arrived
in Richmond. through the courtesy of
M. NJ. Brewster, an old-time New York
ieweler, a lifelong friend of the Jen-
kins family. Its intrinsic value is
great, because of the weight of gold
and gems composing it - twenty
ounces. But its real value lies in its
beauty of expression and perfection.
Its purpose is for ornament, not for
use. Its value is the price a lover of
the beautiful in artistic expression
may place upon it. Incidentally, how
ever, it was originally priced at $4,000.
IN its perfection today it appears to
have just come, fresh from the hands
of the maker.
This gem from Vienna contains
1900 garnets. exquisitely matched as
TO coloring. The covers and clasp are
paved" with tiny stones of uniform
size, the relief patterns are of gems
of varying sizes, cut to suit the de-
sign. Taken as a whole it is an
example of the jewelers. art that is
possibly without a rival in this coun-
