Important Improvement in Silk Finishing.
It cannot be too widely known that, after much patient experiment, Harrods have designed and perfected a machine for softening and imparting a clear surface and the original lustre and brilliance to silks after dyeing.
Everyone knows the complaints so general about Dyed Silks—viz., that they are hard and papery, and have lost their former suppleness. This can no longer be said about Silks, either for Dresses or for Upholstery, dyed by Harrods.
N.B.—Owing to the use of chemicals in the production of many Glacé and other makes of bright finished silks, the traces of which cannot be detected before immersion, Harrods do not undertake any risk in cleaning or dyeing; in all cases these goods are treated with the greatest care to ensure a satisfactory result, but only at owner’s risk.
