Canadian craftsmanship again appears in a room of furniture of exclusively Chippendale, Sheraton and Heppelwhite designs, Exact reproductions of four pieces of furniture from King Tutankha- men's tomb have been loaned by R. 8. McLaughtin of Oshawa, It is rather astonishing that their de- sign does not seem obsolete, A Mexican exhibit which charms by the rustic simplicity of its pig- skincovered chairs, offsets the older and richer beauty of a Tun- isian display of curved wrought iron windows and heavily studded doors on either side of which Ki.ims (rich cur.ains woven by Caucasian girls as their contribu- tion to a hope chest) are hung. Although the average layman is rather sceptical about the beauty of "moderne" furniture .2 room furnished by Buhlmann nf Paris could not fail" to charm. Long sweeping lines of dark polished wood accentuated by a background of s.riking simplicity reveal sheer artistry of design. A few unusual g.ass orcaments and an odd rec- tangular electric fix ure are the finishing touches of this exhibi- tion. The Women's Art Association of Canada has an exhibit of handi- crafts that incluces articles from all par.s of the Dominion, many of which are based on Indian de- signs.
