Painted Furniture 
(Continued from page 51) 
There was an inferior bit of mahog¬ 
any—a secretary and book-case which 
would not have brought fifteen dollars 
at even the most enthusiastic country 
auction. But the lines were good. There 
was a revolving book-case of light oak; 
four Washington chairs of cherry up¬ 
holstered in horse hair; a dreadful 
gilded music cabinet and a black walnut 
whatnot, and two light oak arm chairs. 
The constructing of the new drawing¬ 
room was left to an artist. He declared 
for a thoroughly modern effect, with 
plain walls of gray, and a set of painted 
furniture. The result was astounding. 
The first thing done was the envelop¬ 
ment of this ugly assorted lot, in a 
uniform coat of yellow paint;—a lovely 
soft bright yellow. Then followed the 
decorations; black medallions with En¬ 
glish vermillion and green, the same gen¬ 
eral design being used throughout, al¬ 
though varied slightly. The seats of the 
chairs were then recovered in gray lin¬ 
en to match the walls, the floor painted 
black as was the woodwork, and the 
windows hung with natural colored 
crash fringed in black.
