Belleek china owes its origin to the clever artistry of a small section of Ireland, where in a tiny village called Belleek was born a. china which is now world famous. The evolution from china clay to those dainty, fragile, intricately pat- terned baskets, cups, plates, etc., which slight the eye of a con- noisseur, is a. fascinating study. From Canada, America, Australia, New Zeaiand and South Africa, there is a steady demand for this fairy-like. Irish china. Genuine pieces are each marked with a representation of the Irish wolf- hound. hano round tower ~and shamrock, and can not be mistaken . even by the uninitiated. TREAnURES FROM THE LAND OF THE TZARS There is one aspect of the Elmi- bition of Russian Art recently held in London which should not be overlooked-the wonderful ob- Jects of especial interest to wo- men, some idea, for instance, of the magnificent of Russia in the Eighteenth Century may be gathered from an inspection of the ‘toilet sets of that period There is one so exquisite that consider- able tints is required to study it as it deserves to be studied. Fashioned of cut steel, it is inlaid wit-h silver and gold, and consists of s. mirror in a star-shaped frame mounted on n box-drawer. This centre piece is flanked by two can- delabra of the same metal, which are festooned with ropes of stoel beads forming loops between the arms. , It is not difficult to imagine how lovely that talble must look under artificial light or how precious it was to its owner. In this connection it, is interesting to find it recorded that so many of the exhibits have a definite history, being presents from one great of romantic figure to another. INTRICATE CARVING The Russian love of the intricate is manifested in another toilet set of carved bone , decorated with figure compositions and ciper of the Empress Catherine H. Under the mirror is the usual box-drawer divided into several compartments, and a panel opens to reveal yet more tiny recesses» » Everywhere one finds intricate carving in this period-on hair combs, dzessing combs and book- covers; while, of course. the fans are carved and bejewelled to a. degree that. passes description. Before leaving the mirrors for the embroideries, lock into one in a dull silver frame, chased with foliage and inset with comelians. When you have assimilated some of the magnificence of the em- bmidenzd bedspreads and hang- ings, there a cobweb, embroidered still more finely by Russian serfs. Many hours could be spent over the porcelain collection, which in- ciudes sets of plates each painted with a different military figure; gold knives and forks with porcelain handles; figures and orna- nments too numerous and beauti- ful to attempt to detail.
