專家說明

The celebrated Bond Street firm of Messrs. Johnstone and Jeanes were noted in the Art Journal's illustrated catalogue of the London 1862 Exhibition as having been established for upwards of a century: 'its renown has been obtained not only by a good and substantial manufacture, but by continual study to introduce Art into all their works'.
