Nevertheless, the vagaries of fashion apart, there is no doubt that a great improvement in taste in domestic decoration has taken place within the last few years, and we hope the improvement will • be widely extended. In many houses recently fitted up, embroidery plays the part it should in the abodes of wealth. At a small house in Berkeley Square, the drawing-room curtains are of gold tissue worked with colored flowers in silk, and the portieres are of splendid Japanese work on crimson satin. ...But not only in the mansions of the rich do we hope to see improve- ment. Crewels are now so cheap that every home almost, in England, no matter how humble, may be brightened by sweet and cheerful color. In dress, too, embroidery is be- coming an important element. In the account of a late garden-party at Chiswick of the Prince of Wales's, we read that one lady wore a Louis Quinze waistcoat of ivory silk embroidered with flowers ; another had a scarf tunic of white satin embroidered with gold ; and a third, a cuirass of cloth of gold richly embroidered.
