The continue Stains—We have found it impossible to reproduce in a color photograph, all the soft, lustrous tones which are imparled to the quartered white oak by our oil stains. find therefore suggest that you ask us for samples of the actual colors (we will gladly mail them to you together with actual samples of our cushion coverings). The sam- |i]c will -how you actual colors of our stains and the color mil grade of the cushion materials. We furnish the following spirit stains: dark weathered (a brownish black).

Prices quoted on appli- thing but the best grade of the genuine leathers. The Imperial leather will be furnished in red, brown, green or black and in all colors, except black, a choice is offered between the "Natural grain" (a fine figured effect w7ith small irregular marking-) or the "Spanish grain" (a large figured effect with large irregular markings). The black can be furnished only in a pebbled grain. The Imperial or Imitation let her -ample- may be distinguished from the cow hide from the fact that it has a cloth or sateen backing. We will be glad to send samples on request. For the benefit of those who are not familiar with the different grades of leathers, we will say that every whole hide (cow hide) is split into three separate and distinct hides The best hide, of course, is the outer, or grain hide, which we use exclusively. The "middle" and "flesh" splits fire worked up into clever imitations of the outer hide, but they do not stand the test of time These split leathers can be bought for the same price as the "Imperial" leathers, but we would not guarantee them to last six months in actual service. The Cow Hides can be furnished in red, brown, green or black and in cither the "smooth" or "Spanish" Grain. (See prices of Genuine Leather Covers under the description of each piece.) The Genuine Morocco Roan Skins are an imported goat hide. They are -oft. durable and guaranteed to wear for years. The Roan -kin- can be furnished in red, brown or green, but only in the pebbled grain. The so-called Roan Skins that are usually sold to those who are not familiar with leathers, are nothing more or less than sheep skins. They will not wear well and we do not handle them. We use nothing but the best grade of "Imperial" leather, which we do guarantee to wear, and the best grade of Genuine Roan Skins and Cow Hides. |
