| TEXT | A branch of trade of special interest and value is that carried on upon such an extensive scale by Mr. Gustav Stehr, of No. 1251 Broadway. Meerschaum and amber goods have ever held ft high place in the public estimation, and when so artistically beautiful as the magnificent array to be inspected in Mr. Stehr's store, are well worthy the admiration of the most exacting critic. Vienna has long been noted as the centre of the trade in the choicest carved meerschaum and amber goods, and Mr. Stehr (who is a native of Vienna) is the son of the head of what was the oldest firm in Vienna engaged in this business, and which carried oh an immense and world-wide traffic. Mr. Stehr's father "was counted to be the most expert carver of meerschaum and amber in Vienna, and was active in the business for the unusually long period of fifty-six years and built up an unsurpassed reputation for skill and excellence. Mr. Gustav Stehr was thus born to the trade, as it were, and early in life acquired a high degree of proficiency in the profession The talents he manifested were of the highest order, and he has developed his genius for this high class of art work, until we have no hesitation in saying that he is the finest meerschaum carver in the world to-day. The best judges of good work admit this, and one has only to inspect his truly magnificent masterpieces to realize it. He makes portraits with the greatest accuracy, monograms, original devices - in fact anything and everything that can be delineated, and has justly acquired a world-wide celebrity . He has been established in business upon his own account since 1877, though his experience dates back much farther than that. His store is very centrally located in Broadway, and is elegantly fitted up, while it contains the finest stock of superior meerschaum and amber goods in the metropolis. Mr. Stehr is constantly manufacturing largely, originating new and striking novelties, and has built up a most extensive trade, reaching throughout every portion of the United States. His trade is strictly first class only - his goods have no equals for beauty and artistic merit, and are purchased by tht, best classes of people. His establishment contains the finest as it is the most complete stock of truly artistic meerschaum goods ever brought together and is well worthy a visit from the ait-loving public. Mr. Stehr is not only a gentleman of long and practical experience in the business, but is renowned for hie untiring enterprise and strict integrity, and his representative establishment is not only a source of the greatest possible credit to himself, but likewise to the city wherein it is so permanently located. |
