While sketches in color are sufficient for the trained decorator, the layman 
must also see actual examples of the furniture in order to get a definite and 
adequate idea of how the room will look when completed. 
In the Oak Room on the Second Floor of the new store of W. & J. Sloane 
at Fifth Avenue and Forty-seventh Street, are displayed models of the best 
furniture made in England in the reigns of James I, Charles I, Charles II, 
James II, William and Mary, Anne. 
Many of these models are the.actual handiwork of Seventeenth and Eight¬ 
eenth Century makers. Many are modern reproductions equal in style and 
finish, and superior in construction. All have marked individuality.
