THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTTo those living in New York the firm of George H. Kitchen & Co. is so well known as to require but little, if any mention, but to those living away from the metropolis it must be stated that this firm is the leading manufacturing establishment for making fancy and first-class gas-fixtures, oil lamps, brackets, etc. The concern is located at No. 23 University Place, between 9th and 10th Streets, where every facility for the manufacture of brass, bronze and metal goods is afforded. Messrs. Geo. H. Kitchen & Co. make a specialty of fine work, and it is well known all over the country that their work in the way of handsome chandeliers, candelabras, brackets, etc., is the very best that either Europe or America produces. The concern started as long ago as 1845 at No. 561 Broadway, where the business was conducted for some ten years, when a removal was made to the popular store No. 591 Broadway. In 1882 it was found expedient to remove to the present quarters, the business in 1881 having been changed from that of a partnership to that of a corporation. The establishment has in its employ the finest designers and artists in the world, and the workmen have been selected from among the best artisans of both Europe and America. A wholesale as well as a retail business is carried on, and all visiting the city are advised to make a call upon this well known establishment, where the very finest work in the way of chandeliers, etc., may be seen in the newest designs and the handsomest style of work manship.
