Know Your Furniture and Woods

This Is another tn q series OF
articles on furniture and cabinet
making appearing each Saturday
in the Real Estate Section OF The
Erenino Star.
THE OLD CABINETMAKER.
Prima vera is often called white
mahogany. 1t is not related to ma
hogany even though 1t resembles 1t.
It is not q very large tree and Is
related to the catalpa, which We
know 50 well and md on estates,
lawns and often in parks. The finest
growth Of prima vera is found in
Mexico. It grows also in Brazil.
IT is semi-soft and is rinkisn-
white color. II is usually figured,
stripes and mottled. After it Is
finished 1t takes on q lovely golden
tone not unlike fine satinwood.
Large quantities of furniture are
made Of prima vera, bedroom suites
particularly, as well as occasional
tables and some dining room suites.
Not many years ago pianos were
made Of prima vera, also panel work
and musical cabinets. It is used
extensively in combination with
other woods and these combinations
are as lovely as satinwood. with the
darker woods. Modern designs in
furniture have demanded light-col-
ored woods which have depth and
charm, and prima vera is used with
great success.
Prima vera is in good demand for
commercial uses, such as veneer
panels for store interiors, showcase
frames and bases, display cabinets
and table tops, hotel lobbys, confer
ence rooms. Hotel dining rooms
and bars have had prima vera
veneers applied to the walls and
then paneled, achieving marvellous
form of decoration. The supply OF
prima vera has been somewhat
limited due to the difficulties with
the Mexican government and Ameri-
can-owned timber tracts.
Tulip and holly are often called
the marquetry, or inlay woods. There
are several species Of tulip trees.
The tree which grows on our East
ern seaboard and in the Middle
States is distinctly an ornamental
tree and does not produce a cabinet
wood. The tulip tree which pro-
duces the handsome cabinet wood
grows in South America and is found
principally in Brazil. There is quite
some disagreement as to its origin
and many botanists believe 1t evolved
from the magnolia tree.
The Brazilian tulipwood has bril-

but this may be legend. 1t grows
in every country In the world; In
America, from the New England
States to the deep South. 1t has
been cut so rapidly that laws have
been invoked to protect 1t. 1t is
hard, white wood. 1t can be dyed
successfully in almost any color or
shade desired. Because of this 1t is
very valuable as an inlay wood. The
18th century masters inlaid with 1t
and today many Of our fine inlaid
pieces of furniture are made beau
ttful with holly.

liant red, whitish cream and rose
stripes. 1t is not large tree, so
that the lumber is not very wide.
1t is used for beautiful marquetry
work, inlaid bands and cross bands
on bedroom suites and dining suites
and around the top edge of smaller
tables, nearly always in combination
with other woods. After 1t is finished
it holds its brilliant color, and the
contrasting colors are very dec
orative.
It has been said that holly was
first discovered in the Holy Land,
