Advertisement for Hampton & Sons, furniture, 1895. 'TASTEFUL FURNISHING at SMALL OUTLAY. SPECIALISTS IN THE DECORATIVE TREATMENT OF INTERIORS. MANUFACTURERS OF ARTISTIC FURNITURE, CARPETS, CURTAINS. DEALERS IN WORKS OF ART. "A glance through this 'Book of Interiors and Furniture' reveals at once the real source of Messrs, Hampton & Sons' success as furnishers, as the contents show that rooms can nowadays be furnished in a quite elegant manner at a comparatively trifling outlay. It is by their skill in achieving this end that Hampton & Sons have built up their immense business, and this book of examples evidences that it is upon this ability to put tastefully furnished homes within the reach of the most modest incomes that the House still relies for its chief support." Illustrated London News, September 1, 1894...' From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
