ture of Distinction
TT was, perhapsS, the innate
refinement both in pro
portion and in detail that gave
the Furniture designed by
the Brothers Adam its Eigh
teenth Century vogue and
makes it to-day as "modish"
as when George III. was King.
What, for instance, can
add a more pronounced air
of distinction to the modern
Dining Room than a pedes
talled Sideboard, a Serving
Table with its swell-front and
delicatelv carven frieze, or a
set of shield-back Chairs such
as are to be found among our
carefullyexact Reproductions
of the Furniture accredited to
the famous architect brothers?
