erected in the offices of the Shipping
Corporation in Cockspur Street, London.
The making of the component parts—the
rigging, turrets, blocks, etc., called for
the highest form of craftsmanship in
every sense. The coat of arms made for
Messrs. Keiller & Son, of Glasgow, in
whose window it hangs mounted on a sheet
of plate glass, is also very effective, the
bronze being here relieved by the heraldic
colours of the shield and flags in enamel.
The Guild has recently experimented
with the use of enamel for exterior
decorative effect, and an example of its
use may be seen in the entrance hall of

Messrs. Marshall & Snelgrove's premises
in Oxford Street, London, where this
form of treatment has been employed.
Attention has been called in The Studio
and elsewhere to the need for a little
more colour in London exteriors, and
this experiment, therefore, is a move
in the right direction. a a a
