Corinthian motifs from the
Greek. Interesting are the
new blends of motifs from
traditional designs of the
same period, giving the true
collection look as opposed to
the repetition of design,
characteristic of groups and
suites of a few years ago..
As fresh and cleanly styled

finishes
Walnut is still number one
.wood; cherry Is second. This
information is from J. A. Ha
ger, president of Guardsman
Chemical Coatings, Inc., for
merly known as Grand Rap
Ids Varnish corporation, an
expert on woods and finishes,
llager said that mahogany, in
color recognizable as ma
hogany, the brown tone used
Jn early French furniture, has
Jnoved up fast In the style
picture. He also said that we
are on the threshold of a re
surgence of oak, In sophisti
cated, finishes showing the
land-crafted look, and that
this wood is used more fre
quently in furniture from for
jnal to very casual designs.
: Colorwlsc, finishes, said
Hager, show a trend to the
brown-brown with almost
complete elimination of the
yellow or orange undertones.
The trend toward more
overlays of burls and decora
tive woods, more careful at
tention to hardware and de
tail, continues. Authentic mel
lowness and appearance of
age persists, with finish dis
tressing achieved through
spatter marks, crayon marks
and hand-padding Distressing
of wood, formerly noted only
in high-bracket furniture,
now used even in the medium
and medium-low price
groups to eliminate the fac
tory-fresh look.
Medium Lustra
The sheen of finishes is at
the medium-lustre level. One
new finish, noted on several
high-styled groups in the
market, needs only applica
tion of a cleansing polish,
rather than one to restore
sheen, a boon to the maidless
home.
A new technique in painted
finishes permits the applica
tion of color, without brush
marks. A clear pigmented fin
ish, it permits the wood grain
to show. Those who prefer
the painted finishes used by
the French, Venetians, and
others, in past centuries to
hide the wood grain, and with
brush marks indicating hand
work, will have a choice of
the dry bony type finish, me
dium-key lustre, and the high
lustre, such as preferred by
teen-agers. Colors in painted
pieces range from muted
blues, tile reds, muted green
and mustard yellows In Early
American to the pastel yel
lows, pastel blue-greens, and
beiges used in traditional
lines.
Fabrics
The market will teem with
color, the hot, bright shades
that harmonize with Spanish
and other Mediterranean de
signs,- the . reds, blue, and
green. Colors ride under such
descriptive pseudonyms
pimento, poppy, sour cherry,
ochre, Kashmir, copper, moss,
and many others. Textures
run the range from wool felts,
tweedy cottons, knubby cot
tons and rayons to the lush
silks, matelasses, brocades
and damask weaves, to pro
vide covers suitable for de
igns from contemporary and
modern to the formal traditional.
Collins & Aikmah and its
affiliate firms say the trend
Is to textured nylon, that cov
ers specially made for Medi
terranean designs are de-
lustcrcd but that colors are
brilliant and clean. They are
also showing new colorful
stripes, lots of blue and gold
combines. In their opinion the
trend Is toward more color,
less of white and other neu
trals. (

Italians Show
Low Heels
Florence, Italy -(UPD- The
tall, skinny heel that has
propped up fashionable feet
for so many seasons tottered
on its throne as the Italian
spring-summer fashion shows
went into their fourth day
here today.
International buyers and
press kept a wary eye on the
models feet as designers Ven
ezlani, Marucelli, Guidi and
Mingolini - Gugenhelm u n
veiled their new high fashion
collections in the historic Pit-
ti Palace. The palace, once the
home of a leading Italian fam
ily, is now an art museum
used twice a year for fashion
showings.
The shoe revolution seeth
ing in the Florence collections
should be good news for foot
doctors. Sturdy two-Inch heels
on sensible laced shoes were
the rage, especially for eve
ning.
i Designers Enzo and Lancet-
ti delighted In teaming high
heeled silk sneakers on bro
cade walking oxfords with
formal, evening gowns. The
effect is strange until the eye
has time to adjust to the new
concept.
Shoes ' for daytime wear
were a little more frivllous
except when it came to heels.
Two-toned shoes with broad T
straps and cut-outs seemed to
step straight out of a book of
memoirs on high life in the
1930s.
