This book contains a pictorial handbook of fine furniture made in great Britain and in the American colonies, some in the sixteenth century but principally in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and early nineteenth centuries. Complete with interesting information and lovely photographs of these exquisite pieces, this antique text will be of great value to those with an interest in historical furniture and will make for a great addition to collections of such literature. The chapters of this book include: 'Gothic and Tudor Oak Furniture', 'English and American Furniture of Seventeenth Century Type', 'The Windsor or Turned Chair', 'Lacquer Work', 'Development of the English Walnut Chair', 'English and American Mahogany Chairs', 'American and English Dado Furniture', 'Mahogany Tripod Furniture', 'Occasional Tables', and many more. We are proud to republish this antiquarian book now complete with a new introduction on the history of furniture.
