To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Several of the silver parcel-gilt ornaments are specimens of the emblematical Art-jewellery, a successfully novel feature lately introduced by this renowned firm. especially elegant, as also are some of the silver examples, enamelled with blue and white. One cross, treated in the latter manner, and having a translucent red enamelled ground, with the sacred monogram in the centre, is a gem of its class. The gold-work is characterised by a judicious restraint in the matter of detail. It is never ...suggestive of a mere display of metal, the stones being generally treated as primary. Messrs. W. Marshall & Co. , also of Edinburgh, exhibit a collec- tion of gold and silver-work, in which elaboration of engraved detail is a leading characteristic ; at the same time, these details are always admirably adapted to the general forms of the objects, these forms being invariably well suited to the purpose of the orna- ments. An artistic sentiment runs through the whole series, and there are some examples which it would be difficult to surpass in 1872 THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.
