I N
And Other Works of Art,
ELECTRO DEPOSITED AND GILT BRONZE.
HIS Table is Exhibited to illustrate
the adaptation of Electrotyping to
artides suitable for ornamental fur-
niture. The entire work is pro-
duced by depositing metal by Elec-
tricity into moulds taken from
original models. In the present
instance the design is more than
usually intricate, the pattems having
been taken direct from the Palace
of the Alhambra, at Grenada, and
presented (vvith exclusive Copyright)
to Elkington & Co., by W. Penrose Mark, Esq.,
H.M. Consul, Malaga. The Equestrian Statuette
in centre is a portrait of H.M. Queen Victoria, from
a model by J. H. Foley, R.A. The candelabra on
either side are in the Byzantine style, and repre-
sent men in armour.
The Vases and Wine Cooler on the lower shelf
are reproductions of famous Roman works of Art
from the Musee Borbonico and the Villa Albani.
The manufacturers have profited by the advan-
tages offered by this process to introduce beautiful
and varied designs of door furniture, bell pulls,
knobs, &c., for dining or drawing rooms ; some of
these have been engraved and described in the
Art Journal, and specimens are to be seen at
Elkington & Co.’s display.
