ELECTRO-PLATING AND REPAIR
OBSERVATION POINT,
WORKSHOPS:
WANCHAL.
The Electro-Plating Works laid down some years ago have proved a distinct success, both in the high quality of work expeditiously turned out and also in the fact that our clients are saved considerable delay and HEAVY EXPEN82 in sending homo tarnished metal "ware for replating.
This VARIABLE AND DAMP CLIMATE will cante both silver and electro-plated otal to tarnish, therefore tchy allow such eyesores, when it is possibls to make equal to new at small cost.
The Workshp Plant has recently been considerably enlarged with additional facilities for BRONZING, ANTIQUE COPPER, OXYDİZED SILVER and other fancy finishes.
SHIPS FITTINGS.
It is hardly necessary to dilate on the great convenience to shipping firms, in the knowledge that Balcon, Cabin or Duck Fittings, dinner services, ste, can be rande equal to now in the abortest time at reasonable cost.
HOUSE AND SHOP FITTINGS.
Dianer Services, Ornaments, Bhop Rails and Fittings, ota, all need attention in the [404 course of time, and the benefits of local remedy again appeal strongly..
