THE STUDIO INTERNATIONAL PRIZE COMPETITIONS CLASS A.—INDUSTRIAL DESIGNS. A. VI. DESIGN FOR IRONWORK BRACKET. A. VII. DESIGN FOR A SILVER CUP. A. VIII. DESIGN FOR DAMASK TABLE CLOTH. Size of Sketch to be 46 inches square; 40 inches of this being double ("repeat" or "thrown over"), and 6 inches single. The centre of cloth is in centre of the single portion, or 43 inches from outside, and the Drawing to be made will thus represent a little over one-fourth of the complete Cloth. No. 1 is what the Design is to show. The Design may have a narrow outside border, and wider table border (as in the illustration), or this arrangement may be reversed; but care should be taken to ensure that the outer edge of the inner border (called a table border) be 20 inches from the edge of the cloth, as the outer 20 inches is meant to hang over the edge of the table. The centre portion (inside table border) may consist of sprigs or small sprays. Competitors are not strictly confined to the above arrangement, and designs of merit, although upon different lines, might be accepted. Sketches should be made in Chinese white upon tracing paper, or in black upon white paper, and should be floral, treated either naturally or conventionally. Preference will be given to Designs with a clear, bold, and striking idea, and plenty of ground, and to those capable of being lengthened by insertions of 11 or 22 inches. Much small work, or cutting up of pattern must be avoided. No half tints are allowed, and straight lines are an objection. FIRST PRIZE: Ten Pounds; SECOND PRIZE: Five Pounds; THIRD PRIZE: Three Pounds.

Nothing can be more suitable for a well-selected present than a genuine Work of Art in Marble or Bronze. In reading the lists of presents at most fashionable Marriages, one is struck by the quantity of Silver and Jewellery given, which in most cases is more than the recipients have any need of or use for. The majority of these presents suffer by comparison with others of the same kind given by those to whom money is no object, whereas a charming little Statuette or Bust is sure to attract universal notice and admiration, without danger of being duplicated.

The ornamental part is simply a collection of triumphs. The ware is dazzling white, the glaze perfectly tender and clear, the forms are simple to severity, and the colours delicate and sweet. The whole of the decoration is produced at the Grand feu. The charm of this ware is its perfect simplicity and artistic truth." Danish House, 294 Regent Street, London, W. AD. V
