The subject of our design sheet this week is a striking Candle Bracket illustrated herewith. It is planned on the Pompeian style of design, and as can be seen by the introduction of the faun foot and hoof and the honeysuckle above the mirror, the work is typically Grecian and the rather severe tracery helps to make up a piece of work which can be cut out without much labour. Even a cursory glance reveals the fact that there is really little fretwork to be undertaken, so that the article can be completed quite easily in the course of one or two evenings.
