The Furniture of
Colonial Days
N
OT only the architecture but
the furniture also of the typi
cal Colonial Mansion, (whether itj
be of the Southland or of New
Fngland), appeals to our patriotic
imagination.
Our Colonial reproductionsareso
carefully modelled after ihe most
judiciously selected and authentic
of originals that they bring into
their latter day surroundingsall the
appealing charm of by-gone times.
These Sideboards and Chairs for
the Dining Room, these High-boys
and Four-post Bedsteads for the
Sleeping Chamber fall short in no
degree of the historical examples
they reproduce so faithfully.
