ENDURING BEAUTY OF OUR COLONIAL ARTS :In Old Philipse Manor the Best Features of a Stately Home Are Restored

Reportedly created for informal buffets on Sunday nights or holidays, Russel Wright's new metal and wood serving items are discussed and shown in a photograph. Instead of using traditional materials--china, glasss, and silver--Russel Wright has developed techniques for using new metals to create these items. A large variety of items are shown in the photograph but unnamed. Items shown include the BallyhooBucket and Tumblers; salt, pepper, and paprika shakers; and a tidbit double tray, among numerous other items.
