Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from English Review What better form of New Year gift could there be than something really useful and artistic for the home? When in search of presents, remember Messrs. Heal and Son, at The Sign of the Fourposter, 196 Tottenham Court Road, W. One might suggest a thousand possibilities in actual furniture, but perhaps cushions, coverlets, and curtain fabrics come more into the category of seasonable gifts. There are bedspreads of many kinds at Heal´s. Some designs, of which they hold the copyright, are suited to modern schemes of decoration; others are inspired by eighteenth century patterns. There are exact reproductions of Jacobean embroideries, hand-worked by the natives of Kashmir in rich-coloured wools upon a creamy ground. Any of these make pleasant and useful gifts, while such things as caned bed-rests, bed-tables, and other hospital comforts might be suggested as desirable for all invalids and wounded soldiers. The Fourposter sheets, sent post free by Messrs. Heal and Son, will offer plenty of inspiration to gift-buyers. We are officially informed that a provisional agreement for amalgamation has been entered into between the respective Boards of the historical Eagle Life Office and the British Dominions General Insurance Company, subject to the approval of their shareholders and to the sanction of the Court being obtained. Established under a deed of settlements in the nineteenth century - to be precise, in the year 1807 - the "Eagle" was incorporated under the Companies´ Acts, with unlimited liability in 1897. The capital of the Company is £1,678,675. The British Dominions General Insurance Company, Limited, was established in the year 1904 and has an authorised capital of £1,000,002. We shall look forward with more than usual interest to the new business policy of the joint undertakings, evidence of which, judging by the energy of the British Dominions in the past, more familiar to the public in respect to its now famous "All-In" policies, will no doubt be quickly and forcibly apparent in the early future. All women love a bargain, especially when it is such a covetable bargain as will be found in the sports coat department of Messrs. Debenham and Freebody, of Wigmore Street, during the first twelve days of January. This special bargain, which will prove a most attractive bait to all women who live in the country, is a coat of Heather Glen wool, in all the delightful tones of heather mixtures - brown, blue, mauve, green, and so forth - which has been reduced from three guineas to one guinea simply because it is too long, and consequently a little too weighty, for sporting purposes. Otherwise it is an ideal, cosy, woollen overcoat for driving or travelling or for general country wear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
