OBSERVATION POINT, WANCHAL
The Electro Plating Woska izid down some years ago bave proved a distiziet auccess, both in the high quality of work expeditionsly turned out and also in the fast that one allents are saved considerable delay and HEAVY EXPENSE in sending home tarnished metal
·ware for replating.
This VARIABLE and DAMP CLIMATE will cause both silver and electro-plated metal to tarnish, therefore why allow such eyesores, when it is possible to make equal to new at small cost?
The Workshop Plant has recently been considerably enlarged with additional facilities for BRONZING, ANTIQUE COPPER, OXYLIZED SILVER and other fancy finishes.. SHIPS' FITTINGS.
It is hardly necessary to dilate on the great convenience to shipping Ems, in the knowledge that Baloon Cabin or Deck Fittings, dinner servicos, eto, can be made equal to now in the shortest time at rensonebla, cost.
HOUSE AND SHOP FITTINGS.
Brass Bedsteads, Ornaments, Shop Rails and Fittings, etc, all need attention in the course of time, and the benefits of local remedy again appeal strongly.
