Catalogue of the Publications of Paine's Furniture Company for the Year 1892

It is now many years since the modern wood mantel supplanted the gilt and plaster work which used to furnish forth the chimney-breast. The change has been made by easy steps through successive styles, the last style being the marble mantel so much in vogue in the early sixties. This style has now almost entirely vanished, and to ignominiously surrender the mantelwork of a new house to-day to the marble-mason would be to tender one's resignation from polite society.
