In addition to what we have already received now goods will be arriving during December and early part of January. All Settings are 18-ct Gold. Pearls are of fine quality, properly set in the gold, and do not fall out. All gems are also of excellent quality. Brushes and Mirrors are made with the metal stout enough to stand ordinary wear, and are not loaded with pitch, as is often done. The bristles and glass arc of best quality.
