Decorative staging

1986. The decorative stage consists of shelves, rising in gradation, in various forms, according to taste and particular situation. Those to be viewed on all sides are commonly conical (fig. 555.) or pyramidal; those to be seen only on one side, triangular. One, used by Mrs. Fox, widow of the late celebrated Charles James Fox, at St. Ann's Hill, Surrey, will be found figured and described in the Gardener's Magazine, vol. v. p. 274.
