Another charming feature is, that from the simplest, Semi-Modern, or pretty, picturesque Colonial Suite, and through a range of many examples of the styles of Chippendale and Sheraton, to a superb Italian Renaissance Suite, the immense demand of the prevailing fashion is met for Dining-room Furniture of deep-toned, dusky ancestral flavour as time-mellowed as rare old wine.
