Designs and Colorings of Exceptional Beauty in The New Bundhar Wilton Rugs UNDHAR WILTON RUGS have always been admired for their refined designs and colorings, but the makers have excelled themselves in the beautiful effects produced for this season. Among the features of the display that come in for a large share of atten- tions are the new black-and-white, or, strictly speaking, black-and-gray effects in allover grounds and solid centers with conventional and band borders. A very handsome Rug reproduces the effect of a rich verdure tapestry. Some unusually beautiful conventional designs are shown in dull blues and greens combined with taupe and other soft shades of gray. And there are numerous fine copies of rare old Oriental Rugs, reproduced with characteristic fidelity to detail in design and coloring. Bundhar Wilton Rugs are shown in the following sizes: 2214x36, 27x54 and 36x63 inches; 4-6x7-6, 6x9, 8-3x10-6, 9x12, 9x13-6, 10-6x12 and 10-6x14 feet. The prices range from $3.50 to $75.00. Our long acquaintance with Bundhar Wilton Rugs warrants our commending them in the highest terms to those in search of artistic, luxurious and long-wearing floor coverings at a moderate price.
