The Narragansett



From Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co. Catalogue
In this era of severe and critical taste in house decoration, many turn from the very ornamental to the plainer styles of furniture. To meet this demand we have produced the “New Narragansett.” The table finds great favor with people whose ideas of correct taste are considered standard. It was this design of table manufactured by us that received the award of first medal for excellence at the Paris Exposition of 1878, when in competition with like goods from all parts of the world. While nothing of a florid character has been attempted in this design, still the table is one which has an inherent beauty peculiar to its own individuality. The clear polished woodwork at the sides and the head and foot of the table is tastefully relieved by vertical moldings at each head block.
