(Third Fleer) 'l Chippendale or Sheraton or the cabinet makers te the French courts hew they would step and marvel at the way each little detail of their creation had been magnified and softened and. improved. Hew undreamed-of features had been developed te bring a new gracefulness, a new luxury, a new comfort te each piece of furniture. The furniture of today as found in this Wanamaker Sale bears out the art of its "period" te the finest detail, but it brings something mere. It is solid, substantial and serviceable, yet pro portioned for the modern apartment as well as house; it is fashioned for comfort and ease and it introduces a mechanical completeness and variety net known wlten the old masters were building their famous models. The craftsmen who created the style of Leuis XVI would certainly find a rare and fascinating interest in this Ivery Enameled Bedroom Suit in that style, which we offer in the sale at $1743. The maker of this suit specializes in enamel work, and in this field he has no equal te our knowledge. This is as fine an example of modern enameled furniture as money can buy. It is hand decorated in floral pattern done in natural colors. The lines and proportioning of each piece are a triumph of harmony. What is known as the "casework," that is the interior cabinet work, is an equally unmistakable triumph of skill. We show many ether suits of a kindred type. One at $1100 is in a gray enamel effec tively striped in blue and bronze. Others in the collection are $1050, $1084, $1268. All are much less than the regular price. And speaking of Chippendale and Shera Shera ten, hew either one of the old masters weuUJ be impressed by the way his work is perpetu ated in the collection of fine dining-room suits shown en the Sixth Fleer, Market Street! ' One Sheraton suit in particular is un commonly true te type. Ten pieces, in fine light-colored mahogany veneers with oblong table, and chair-backs showing Windser turnings and a wheel-like or pierced oval device set in a rectangular frame. The re duced price is $935. A ten-piece Chippendale suitin fine ma hogany veneers is one of many that would interest Themas by its rich carvings, typical cabriele legs, well-proportioned oblong table and generally fine lines. New marked $1260. What a sale it is in which these finely individual suits, worthy of the golden ages of cabinet making, can be bought at the same relative price advantages that prevail ever the less expensive suits and pieces, of which we show an assortment without - precedent or a parallel.
