Many multiple things. If you can stand the heat, some notables include the entire — extended — strip of Tecumseth Street, from Diaz Contemporary way down south at Niagara all the way up to Susan Hobbs, almost at Queen. They've been sporadically timing their openings together for a while now, and I think it's genius, bringing a critical mass of people to the neighbourhood all at once

Illustration: Otto Prutscher Carpet design c1909 This piece of design work can be seen as a prime example of what many have come to associate, and in some respects even expect, from the design movement of the Wiener Werkstatte. It was produced as a carpet design around 1909 by one of the prominent members of the Wiener Werkstatte, Otto Prutscher. Prutscher had the great fortune to be taught at the Viennese Art School by amongst others, Professor Josef Hoffmann

Rubies are wonderful! Most of the rubies that I get are an opaque colour and usually a dark red or a pinkish red. I wish that I could find more rubies in different sizes (especially larger sizes) and shapes, but I do jump on any opportunity to get some that look out of the ordinary. Rubies belong to the corundum family of gemstones and are generally the most valuable of that type.

Illustration: Illuminated manuscripts from Owen Jones The Grammar of Ornament 1856 Owen Jones did not produce a separate chapter in his 1856 The Grammar of Ornament for illuminated manuscripts. It was in fact a sub-section of his Medieval Ornament chapter, which also included examples of stained glass, ceramic tiles and other standard decorative work. Of the three pages of illustrations within the chapter that dealt with illuminated manuscripts, all of which are shown here, some were taken by Jones from examples in the British Museum and some from Illuminated Books of the Middle Ages which was originally published in 1849 by Henry Noel Humphreys.

However, Baillie Scott also managed to produce both textile and wallpaper design work particularly during the two decades that spanned the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century.
