This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1878 Excerpt: . . . cut jade for ages, but never ornamented it, except by sculpture; but when it was introduced into India the native jewellers, with their quick eye for colour, at once saw what a perfect ground it afforded for mounting precious stones, and they were the first to encrust them on jade. The Indian Museum possesses the choicest and grandest specimens of this work known, of the best Mogol period. They were exhibited at the Paris Exhibition of 1867. The jewelry of Ceylon in filigrain, chasing, and repousse, is remarkable for the delicacy of its ornamentation in granulated gold, in the style of the antique jewelry of Etruria, and exquisite finish. Gold beaters skin (jillt) is prepared in India from the scarf skin of the sheep, in large quantity. Art Furniture And Household Decorations. If we may judge from the example of India, the great art in furniture is to do without it. Except where the social life of the people has been influenced by European ideas furniture in India is conspicuous only by its absence. In Bombay the wealthy native gentlemen have their houses furnished in the European style, but only the reception rooms, from which they themselves live quite apart, often in a distinct house, connected with the larger mansion by a covered bridge or arcade. Europeans, as a rule, and all strangers, are seen in the public rooms; and only intimate friends in the private apartments. Passing through the open porch, guarded by a room or recess for attendants on either side, you at once enter a sort of ante-chamber, in which a jeweller is always at work making or repairing the family jewels. Through the windows, across the court, the Brahmin cook is seen among the silver drinking vessels and dishes preparing for the mid-day meal. In the opposite verandah, into which yo. . .
