EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the elegant world of Thos. Parsons & Sons, renowned varnish and colour manufacturers based in the heart of London, as depicted in this advertisement illustration from circa 1914. The image transports us to a Georgian corner of their showrooms, where the warm glow of natural light filters through the tall, arched windows, casting a soft, golden hue over the meticulously displayed products. The scene is set against the backdrop of Oxford Street, with its bustling crowds and horse-drawn carriages, providing a stark contrast to the tranquility and refinement of the showroom. The shelves are lined with an array of exquisite colours and varnishes, each one promising to add a touch of sophistication and charm to any project. Thos. Parsons & Sons were leaders in their field, supplying their high-quality products to artists, decorators, and craftsmen alike. Their reputation for excellence was well-earned, as evidenced by the numerous accolades and awards they received throughout the years. This unattributed advertisement was originally published in a magazine, specifically in the August volume of 315 and 317, and serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of artisanal manufacturing and the allure of Georgian London.
