Fret cutting and perforated carving : with practical instructions / by WBemrose, Jun . ved many letters ofencouragement from Amateurs who have benefitted by the instructions conveyed in that Work, has determined upon the publication of a Fifth and Enlarged Edition, inorder to meet the increasing demand. This cordial reception has also induced him to offer to the Public the presentvolume ; in which the Sister-art of Fret-Cutting and Perforated-Carving are practicallyexplained and illustrated, for the guidance of that large class of Amateurs whose time, orinclination, does not permit them to attempt the more elaborate designs comprised in theformer work. It is believed that much pleasure and amusement for leisure hours may bederived from the practice of this easy, yet graceful and useful art ; the Author thereforehopes that his later instructions and examples will be found no less useful than the Manualof Wood Carving, to those who study an accomplishment by no means difficult, althoughsusceptable of developing manual dexterity and taste to a very considerable extent. •. 4 FRETWORK.
