ifftntl hays remarked that there is nothing tfler the sun, but the extraordinary D#ff 1d &>m tne Caledonian mine is something S*i ws s never yet known of, and even that is »Mmt when compared to the handsome SSSSynoir being made daily by F. H. T,ewisson, Jeweller, Queen-street, from the miartz-stone from that mine. There are ear•riDes, brooches, pins, studs, solitaires, sleevelinks 4c, &c, 4c Many may think it impossible for them to be finished in Auckland, the articles being turned out in such first-class style, but having visited the greenstone lapidary, as also the workshop where the gold work is done (where anyone can see for themselves, should they feel so inclined), we can assure the public that the goods turned out by F. H. Lewisson (opposite the Union Bank) are purely Colonial, and would not disgrace any first-class house in London. A look in the window will well repay anyone, as there is always something new to be seen end admired, and never the same goods two dajs together. Advance New Zealand!— New Zealand Herald.— [Adtt.] - By the invitation of F. H. Lewisson we paid a visit to his factory to inspect some articles now being finished. We were well repaid for our trouble, and had no idea of the perfection he has obtained in the working of auriferous quartz and greenstone into jewellery; also, a black stone found in Mari's Island, which, when cut and polished, surpasses the English jet. It may be as well to mention a few articles now being finished, under order for the outgoing mail, viz., a pair of black earrings and brooch ; a mosaic brooch made of light and dark gold-bearing quartz and-greenstone, in the shape of a star —a beautiful specimen of colonial workmanship ; a mosaic auartz and greenstone cross ; an anchor made of quartz and greenstone, for a gentleman's pin; a set of studs, sleeve-links, and collar-buttons to match ; quartz, horseshoe in the centre of a piece of greenstone ; and several masonic emblems, composed of quartz and greenstone. These, when the gold mounting is finished, will be worthy inspection, and we should advise anyone desirous of sending home elegant presents to pay a visit to F. H. Lewisson's establishment, opposite the Union Bank, Queen-street. — Daily Southern Cross. — [Advt.] An inspection of Mr. F. H. Lewisson's shop, nearly opposite the Union Bank, Lower Queenstreet, will show what can be done in the manufacture of jewellery in Auckland. There rings, lockets, brooches, earrings, and other forms of jewellery, manufactured in Mr. Lewisson's shop in Albert-street, are spread oat in tempting profusion, and are no less remarkable for their variety and originality, than for their tastefulness, and their very excellent workmanship. We cannot'undertake to describe here the various buds, leaves, plants, flowers, and other things, formed out of gold, silver, quartz, greenstone,cornelian, kauri gum, and other materials selected for the purpose. They must be inspected, in order to their being appreciated, and this they will be largely by the favourers of colonial industries. Mr. Lewisson's jewellery has, of course, to compete with the cheaply worked productions of Great ■Britain and the Continent of Europe, but from this it htm -nothing to fear. Its superior Cjuality and greater durability will not only tend to its being largely worn here, but to its being extensively exported. Those desiring to send jpresents home will find all they could wish in Mr. Lewisson's shop to select from. Many of the articles for inspection and sale are as unique as they are beautiful. Mr. Lewiseon's investment of capital, spirit of enterprise, and artistic skill deserve all the countenance and support that can be accorded to Him.—Evening News.— -[Advt.] Q. C. E.
