Sofas, Davenports and
Easy Chairs
Are Almost Indispensable to
the Really Comfortable Home
Where is the comfort center of
your home? About the fire? Does
the family still draw irp their
chairs in the old-fashioned way?
Or is there a lonir. wide, com
fortable davenport placed in front
ot tne lire: Are mere Die; easy
chairs near by? Seats so restful
that they coax away all thought
of fatigue?
English people have long been
recognized as the race which
knows how to be comfortable.
This is the reason why our fur
niture experts have had copied
some of the most comfortable
sofas, davenports and easy chairs
from London designs. They are
specialties of the Furniture Gal
lery. The best to be had in
America is brought here from
many fine manufacturers.
In addition, we have our own
workshop devoted largely t.i '.he
building of beauMful as well as
comfortable davenports and
chairs.
This workshop is sunshiny:
there is an unusual staff of ex
pert workers; there is an excep
tional supply of all kinds of good
materials with which to do the
best work.
Much of the furniture is done
in sateen or denial and will be
recovered to order if desired. A
particularly rich assortment of
coverings includes tapestry, mo
hair, velour and damask. rtart
ing at $4.50 and going as high as
a yard.
Sketched is a long, slightly
rounded sofa with colonial lines.
It has a slender, graceful out
line, hand-carved mahogany ftet
and five loose down pillows for
the back. It is one of the finest
pieces we know.
English style overstuffed dav
enports with, square arms can be
had with loose cushions and
tufted, plain or sectional backs.
Sometimes, to give the effect of
lightness or grace, the arm of a
davenport will be lowered or the
back will be made less high, or
the frame will be shown; such
styles are exceptionally good for
smaller rooms.
Arm chairs, high-backed fire
side chairs, beautiful Louis XVI
chairs and many others have been
designed for us to suit tall and
short and large and slender peo-
?le. No one chair can be com
ortable to everyone, and if you
have not yet found YOUR com
fort chair, we shall be glad to
have you find it among these.
Davenport prices vary from
$159 to $406.
Easy chairs are from $62.75 to
$144.
A finely carved Chippendale
suite for a luxuriously comfort
able living room includes a dav
enport, two large easy chairs and
carved table at $125.0,
Visitors are invited.
