THE "The auriferous tastes of the day, as evinced by the enormous show of Wealth in London, have had an influence upon personal ornaments. The TASTE FOR DANISH JEWELLERY, which received an impetus at the time o! the marriage of the Prince of Wales, the influx of machine-made Jewellery, and the ever-changing DEMANDS OF FASHION, have induced manufacturers to produce GOLDEN ORNAMENTS FOR THE MILLION, and the "GOLD OF THE PERIOD "is the result. As the Inventors and Manufacturers, MESSRS STIEFBOLD & CORY, of LONDON WALL, have closely followed REAL GOLD PATTERNS, this invention is a marked success. Ladies Of high standing, possessing as heir-looms Caskets of exquisite Jewellery, bow to la mode in this respect, and, changing ornaments daily, avail themselves of the great scope of design and pattern offered at so cheap a rate by the " GOLD OF THE PERIOD," while the middle and lower classes eagerly embrace the opportunity of wearing ornaments they could have no other chance of wearing. Nor is the foible confined to the*" SWEET DEFECT OF NATURE— WOMAN," Chains, Watches, Studs, Wrist Links, and Pins being equally in demand with Long and Victoria Chains, Necklets, Bracelets, Lockets, Ear-rings. Verily the days of Miss Kilmansegg are returning, and both the " GIRL OF THE PERIOD " and her MASCULINE PROTOTYPE owe a considerable debt of gratitude to MESSRS STIEFBOLD & CORY, the inventors of the " GOLD OF THE PERIOD."
