The Flower Holders are solid disks in the shape of a dome, with flat base, in which 
are sunk 40 to 50 luuuiai uriiices graduallv inclining outwards from the centre. When 
flowers are to be arranged, the tubes are fllted with water, and the disk is placed on an 
ornamental plate of wide diameter (preferably of glass or terra cotta), which retains any 
overflow of water, and supports the outer leaves. The sprays of flowers and foliage are 
inserted m the tubes one by one according to the taste of the arranger>-the highest in the 
centre ; otheis inclining outwards, and the lowest resting on the margin of the plate. 
The numerous separate tubes give to the arrangemeut a lightness and beauty which 
cannot be obtained with ordinary vases, in which flowers and leaves must necessarily be 
crowded together for want of lateral support. Each spray, however delicate, remains 
exactly where it is placed, and the effect of the grouping can be studied as the work pro* 
cee^. Ferns and other graceful foliage play a great part m this mode of decoration, 
dividing one flower from another, and entirely concealing the mechanism of the contrivance. 
This new system of flower arrangement is specially recommended for the use of ladies, 
who will be able by its means to pr^uce a great variety of beautiful effects in the whole 
field of decoration, hwm Wild Flowers to Orchids. It will also afford great facUity to 
attendants, when ladies are unable to give personal attention.
