Price 25/- 440 A LEAD VASE. LEAD is essentially the English material for garden ornaments. It takes its place as faithfully and naturally as marble does in Italy. While this volume deals as -^ well with the more purely architectural uses of lead for pipe-heads, fonts, etc., many of its chapters are devoted wholly to garden statues, vases, cisterns, sundials and the like. , No one who is interested in the Renaissance of formal gardening can afford to overlook this important work. It goes far to identify the statues and vases of the sculptors of the XVIIth and XVIIIth Centuries, who did so much to beautify old English gardens. 12.
