Show FINE IVORY NOW THE VOGUE Toilet Table Accessories at the Present Pres-ent Moment Are Costly but Decidedly De-cidedly Smart. All the toilet and dressing table requisites are now found in fine ivory. The only care needed is to rub off with a fresh, soft cloth, occasionally using a rag moistened in alcohol if Bpots occur. These, too, are more costly than silver, but are considered very smart. The backs are monogramed In black, brown, and occasionally In raised gold. Sometimes the sets are shown with floral decorations, but this Is not so good style as is seen in many of the imitations. White celluloid sets with a monogram mono-gram In black, dark green, blue, or brown are now to be found in good designs with simple lines. The latest preparations are no longer combustible, combus-tible, and a full celluloid toilet set is a good investment for a guest room, for a girl at college, or for the chronic traveler; for use In a bag they are much lighter than any other ware. The searcher after novelty can have her dressing table appointments in antique an-tique gilt, old Japanese lacquer, or Dresden china. Such a selection is not for the average aver-age buyer, as, unless rare workmanship workman-ship and corresponding cost are had, the results are likely to be poor. |
