The Antiquity
of Enamel
The Egyptians, long ago, learned
the decorative value of enamel
paints, and used them in many
ways. Strange to say the wide
spread use of decorative enamels
In Egypt came about for reasons of
necessity.
Wood in Egypt was both scarce
and inferior, long pieces were hard
to obtain and many articles of wood
made by these early craftsmen
were made of small pieces, necessi¬
tating much joining, and leaving
many imperfections to be worked
out or covered up.
So making a virtue of necessity,
paints of great beauty arfd endur¬
ance were applied, coat after coat,
to conceal the delects of the
natural wood. So well was the
purpose accomplished and so artis¬
tic the result, that the original
reason for the use of the enamels
is rarely remembered.
Today the striking beauty of thei
coloring, the velvety smoothness of
the finish is much admired when¬
ever old tombs are opened and old
objects of art uncovered.
This method of finishing was
brought to a great degree of per¬
fection by many of the ancient
nations, also by some of the old
masters of furniture design of only
a century ago, but It is only very
recently that modern decorators
are perceiving the artistic possibili¬
ties contained in a can of modern
decorative enamel.
Perhaps one reason for this is
the fact that modern science and
practical investigation have shown
how to mix the necessary ingredi¬
ents to make enamels that produce
unvarying and satisfactory results.
It has proved conclusively that the
perfect painter is largely a question
of a perfect paint.
Modern furniture makers and
Interior decorators are certainly
reviving the old art—whole sets of
furniture, enameled to carry out a
special color scheme are greatly in
demand, odd pieces, old chests,
tables, chairs, painted vivid red or
a brilliant blue enliven and enhance
otherwise gloom interiors.
Old furniture, long discarded, is
being brought out of attic and store
room and a good enamel, tasteful
in color, lends dignity to design.
Old furniture of excellent design
and battered finish relegates to
dark corners and the unused ropm
is now given a coat of decorative
enamel, and “a place in the sun.”
American manufacturers of paint
and varnish have already grasped
this opportunity and today paint
and varnish factories like Lamp-
ton’s, (Lampton, Crane & Ramey
Co., of Louisville, Ky.), are pro¬
ducing decorative enamels superior
to those of ancient make and in an
infinite variety of colors.
The brilliant and enduring effects
procured by the ancients at the
expense of much labor and many
experiments are easily and qucikly
produced today even by the rankest
amateur. Any man or woman of
artistic tastes and a little skill can
transform the most dingy and unat¬
tractive of their possession to
things of beauty and delight.
Any one who has not tried this
latest indoor sport has something
to look forward to that will well
repay the effort. Lampton’s Paint
