HEAL'S ENGLISH CHARACTER Furniture, as simple as this, has, of necessity, to be well and truly made. The limed Canadian pine has fine figure and a warm grey tone, which derives subtle emphasis from the darker yew-tree handles. The horizontal mouldings are appropriately reticent and have a quiet dignity. The price, in keeping with the design, is modest and reasonable HEAL’S HEAL & SON LTD · 196 TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD · LONDON · W1 AD. I

THE NEW FREEDOM in Lighting A new freedom in design, a freedom from many of the restrictive factors which have hampered you in the past . . . thanks to the revolutionary G.V.D. principles. Now you can think of light as a really flexible medium, applicable to all decorative and utility purposes. Laylights, cornice, panel and pillar lighting now cost very considerably less to instal, run and maintain; in some cases the saving is as much as 75 per cent. Ventilation problems are swept away. Structural requirements are simplified. Give your imagination full play. Allow a bare minimum of space for the installation and leave the rest to us. The fullest co-operation is gladly offered and schemes will be developed to carry out your ideas. Consult G.V.D. on any lighting problem and ensure the most advanced treatment. --- G.V.D. CONTROLLED LIGHT G.V.D. ILLUMINATORS LTD., ALDWYCH HOUSE, W.C.2. HOLborn 8879 AD. VII --- NEW ACCOMMODATION IN ALDWYCH HOUSE is now being prepared and will shortly be occupied. Many interesting applications of G.V.D. lighting will be available for demonstration. You will find a visit well worth while. Please call and become acquainted with the great possibilities of the G.V.D. System of Controlled Light.
