Wright, Meredith Brock, Elizabeth and J, C. Horn, Jr. 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.
