Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Furniture Designers of the Eighteenth Century N the present volume I have endeavoured to trace the history of English furniture from the reign of William and Mary to the early years of the nine teenth century. The illustrations (most of which have not appeared before) present choice examples of the Queen Anne School, the brothers Adam, the Chippendales, Sheraton, Shearer, and Hepplewhite. I have not reproduced any fanciful designs from the illustrated catalogues issued by eighteenth-cen tury cabinet-makers, but have preferred to give illustrations of pieces that were actually made and are to-day the cherished possessions - by inherit ance or purchase - of time-honoured families or dis criminating collectors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Furniture, Vol. 4: The Sheraton Period; Post-Chippendale Designers, 1760-1820 In compiling the first four volumes of this series, covering the four great periods in the development of English Furniture, from Tudor to Georgian times, the writers have very naturally in turn held a brief for each period. In Volume I, whilst extolling the delights of old oak in general, and sideboards, coffers, and draw-tables in particular from the purely decorative point of view, they frankly warned the reader that very little in the direction of absolute comfort could be expected from the farm-house settle, joyned stool, or angular and unyielding arm-chair. The Elizabethan oak bedstead was practically dismissed as unhygienic, even if, from its extreme rarity and consequent high value, it came within hail of the modest collector.

Download or read book The Furniture Collector written by Edward W. Gregory and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Furniture Collector: An Introduction to the Study of English Styles of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries Most collectors of old English furniture find that the periods to which the objects of their search belong are within the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Earlier examples than those dating from the reign of James I. are as a rule unattainable, and furniture of a later date than the end of the reign of George III. is not worth attention. The following pages, therefore, confine themselves to the consideration of the most easily recognisable styles evolved in Stuart and Georgian times. An attempt has been made in the various chapters to visualise the interior of the English home as it changed in character from one period to another, by giving from contemporary sources the different pieces of furniture in common use. It is hoped that this treatment will assist the collector to create in his own mind a background against which his possessions will take their appropriate places.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English furniture of the eithteenth century has never been more admired or sought after than it is today. This is largely because it possesses a simplicity, a sober elegance and a practical usefulness which make it ideal for modern houses. Such furniture owes as much to good design as to the craftsman's skill, and that is why, in this book, the Victoria and Albert Museum has made an attempt to carry out--for the first time--a systematic survey of the great mass of eighteenth-century designs which has come down to us. The Museum is in a good position to embark upon such a venture, because it possessess one of the largest collections of English furniture designs in existence, a collection which includes copies of nearly all the relevant pattern books, some of them very rare, and a considerable number of original drawings, which tend to be rarer still, because they were all too often lost or destroyed, once they had served their purpose. --back cover.
