Damage-Proof Plastics Take Over House
BY EDNA MILES
TIE kitchen table, the center of family living in grandmother’s
day, has been steadily regaining its popularity in modern house
holds since the introduction of plastic tops.
Junior can overturn his ink while doing his homework; Dad can
spill ashes from his pipe; Mom can set down hot dishes without
■pads; Sister can smear fingernail polish around—all without dam
age.
These advantages, which the American public was quick to rec-’
ognize, are now being made available in front-of-the-house furni
'ture. There are plastic-surfaced pieces for the dining room, the
living room, the bedroom, the terrace—almost any spot you can
name.
Although this new furniture was inspired by mar - resistant
kitchen equipment, there is nothing pantry ish-looking about these
new melamine laminates.
A number of new finishes have been achieved in designer-created
^pieces recently introduced.
There are real woods coated with plastic for extra durability, or
woodgrains reproduced on photographic paper. The latter appear,
to the casual eye, to be the real thing.
There are table and dressing table tops of fabric to match your
draperies. These have been impregnated with melamine to make
them glossy and lasting.
There are also treated papers in ebony-like black or pastels, and
there are combinations of wood, fabric and paper in a novel,
textural surface.
This dressing table top of striped drapery fabric laminated with
white paper and melamine matches window hangings; is impervious
to damage from spilled cosmetics or the ypstickef message milady
is writing.
