FISHER & LUDLOW
Albion Works, Red Street, Birmingham
Fisher & Ludlow, Ltd., Albion Works, Red-street, Birmingham are designers and manufacturers of heraldic and artistic specialities in metal. They manufacture art goods for Christmas, birthday, and wedding presents. For Christmas displays their productions afford a very pleasing variety, and will be attractive additions to a fancy counter or a window devoted to Christmas novelties. It is a first necessity for a dealer to do something or show something that will cause the public to look at his window display. Some of Messrs. Fisher & Ludlow’s novelties are calculated to have that effect. This is the season when table decorations are in demand. Within the last few years the ornamentation of dinner, tea, and supper tables has become the rule in all respectable families, instead of being limited, as it used to be, to the wealthy classes only. We form our estimate of the good taste of our hostess as much by a glance at her table decorations as by her dinner or tea service. Manufacturers have met this artistic taste (indeed, if they have not created it they have done much to foster it) by the abundant provision of beautiful yet comparatively inexpensive table ornaments. Amongst these must be included the "Silver Tree" table decorations, manufactured by Messrs. Fisher & Ludlow. These are original artistic designs, silver-plated on white metal, and enamelled with transparent enamel. They take the form of epergnes, archways, fruit and flower stands, three-cornered rustic stands and sets consisting of centre piece and two side pieces. One of the last-named is called the "Queen Alexandra" set, as it was supplied to her Majesty, and is a charming conception. Fig. 1 shows an epergne as in use. It is twelve inches high, and has a movable top, so that when required the base can be used alone. Fig. 2 is a rustic epergne seven inches high. These stands are made in many sizes and a great variety of forms. A chrysanthemum stand, for instance, is made in several sizes, each with a tall centre vase and several smaller vases round the base. There are centre pieces, side pieces, and corner pieces forming complete table sets in several designs. When filled with flowers, berries, or fine grasses these make pleasing decorations. All pieces are carefully enamelled to prevent tarnishing, and are easily kept clean by dusting with chamois leather only. Fig. 3 shows one of a number of electro-plated fern pots. The one shown has an up-to-date "new art" ornamentation. The company are also making table centres to take large flower pots.
