Notes
Content: Printed on border: "The above is a collection of ornaments produced by Messrs. Hunt and Roskell, in which art is admirably applied to gold with only very rare employment of gems of any kind. The ornamentation consists principally of geometrical figures and conventional arrangements of leaves and flowers. The designers have followed Byzantine, Gothic, and Scandinavian models, but not servilely; on the contrary, the old styles have been adapted with much taste and judgement. It only remains to add that the workmanship is of the best."
Source note: Art industry : metal-work, illustrating the chief processes of art work applied by the goldsmith, silversmith, jeweller, etc. (London: Virtue, 1878) Yapp, George Wagstaff, Editor.
