Gentleman's Chiffionier Cabinet
This Cabinet will accommodate 12 Complete Suits, 36 Shirts, 12 Changes of Underclothes, 3 Hats, also Collars, Handkerchiefs, Gloves, Ties, and Boots.
In Innovation Cabinets there is a right place for everything. Each article of clothing is kept in perfect shape and condition. The ample accommodation for Suits is only made possible by using our famous Pivotal Rack, which, with a gentle pull, brings every suit out into the light for inspection. Suits are each placed on their own specially devised hangers, making creasing or crushing impossible. There is no trouble to find what you want, as every suit is in sight and immediately to your hand when required. There are specially devised and separate drawers for Collars, Socks, Shirts, and Underclothing, etc. The bottom Boot drawer, with inverted opening, may be pulled out or closed with foot, to obviate unnecessary stooping. This Cabinet triples the accommodation usually provided in similar sized wardrobes.

THE "GIPSY" GRATE
is a very strong and efficient barless grate having no parts to get out of order. There are two flues: the lower one for taking the majority of the smoke, thus avoiding the accumulation of soot on the overhanging fire-clay back; this means increased radiation of heat into the room

No. 17. FIREPLACE SUITE (LONGDEN PATTERN)
THE refinement and appearance generally lacking in the ordinary firegrate are truly represented in the “Carron” selection of choice models.
¶ “Carron” firegrates impart to the room that characteristic dignity so long associated with grates of “Carron” manufacture.
¶ They are distinctly unique in style and finish, and diffuse throughout the room a comfortable warmth.
Suite illustrated shows an adaptation of an early XVIIIth Century Dog Grate at Hampton Court Palace

ROYAL COPENHAGEN PORCELAIN
All Genuine pieces are marked with the historic three blue lines
THIS mark in blue is found on all pieces from 1779 to present day. It is the symbol of the waterways of Denmark—the Sound, the Great Belt, and the Little Belt, placed on the porcelain by Juliane Marie, Queen of Denmark.
TO distinguish between the old work and later reproductions, the Royal Copenhagen Porcelain Factory uses a crown in blue in addition to the three blue lines.
AN EXHIBITION OF THIS PORCELAIN IS PERMANENTLY ON VIEW AT
