›FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of…

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a door front showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top view thereof, the bottom view being a mirror image;

FIG. 4 is a side elevational view thereof; the opposite side elevational view being a mirror image;

FIG. 5 is an enlarged partial sectional view taken along line 5--5 as shown in FIG. 2; FIG. 6 is a front elevational view of a second embodiment of our new design;

FIG. 7 is a front elevational view of a third embodiment of our new design shown in FIG. 2; and,

FIG. 8 is a front elevational view of a fourth embodiment of our new design. The enlarged partial sectional view shown in FIG. 5 also shows corresponding views for the second, third, and fourth embodiments. The perspective, top and side views for the additional embodiments is substantially equivalent to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, after adjusting for the number and spacing of the raised panels.

Our new design comprises, essentially, a raised panel lattice-work for furniture door fronts in several representative embodiments. The differences among the embodiments lie essentially in the number and spacing of the raised panels.

The broken lines are for environmental purposes only and form no part of the claimed design.
