from less famous designers compositions applicable to 
their industry. The favor with which the public received 
the new forms put life into the deserted shops. Pewter 
potters became again numerous, and to the traditional 
technique of the craft was added a new method, borrowed 
from the skilled goldsmiths and silversmiths: that of ham- 
mering pewter, as if it were gold or silver. Dishes were

made, highly worked up, with edges twisted and turned, 
with bodies well rounded, ornamented with friezes, mon- 
ograms and crests, which were graven with the tool; the 
decoration becoming, as time went on, capricious, rococo,

ROSES (Page 29) 
Phil Wight. 
THE background of this design is in three different 
tones, the outer and darkest one is of a dark green 
shade for which we advise the use of equal parts of Brown 
Green and Shading Green No. 57. The inner and lightest 
part is Yellow Brown, while the intervening tone should 
be executed in gold. The roses should be in two shades 
of Rose No. 23 and Pink No. 17. Stems and foliage, Yellow 
Green and thorns and junction of leaves Dark Pompadour. 
Sketch in design in India ink, wash in Dark Green and 
light Yellow Brown parts of background, padding gently 
over to even it down, then dry. Take Clove oil and cut 
out the design, fill in and put on gold last of all. If desir- 
able trace whole in black, or, as the study suggests, very 
carefully in White Enamel (Relief) .
