The celebration of the silver wedding of the Prince of Wales had some effect on the jewelry and fancy trades. The corporation of the City of London resolved to present their Royal Highnesses with a commemorative present, and competitive designs and models were asked for. These were submitted to the authorities, and the design by Elkington & Co., limited, was accepted. They have received instructions to manufacture in silver a model of the proposed Imperial Institute. It is to cost five hundred guineas, and is to be ready for presentation at an early day.

At Messrs. Elkington and Co.’s one sees a novel tobacco-box in silver, copied from the design popular with the “navvies” in days gone by. There is also any number of pretty little brooches, dainty in design, which would make very acceptable presents.
