Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Oak Furniture Occasionally it has happened that spurious (or mainly spurious) rarities have escaped challenge, and have appeared somehow in illustrated works on the subject of ancient furniture as articles of rare interest. These also, in spite of their ambiguous origin, have not escaped duplication, and the result has been a continuous declension, tending much to mystify the embryo collector with a little knowledge as to styles. Avowed and open reproduction of furniture on antique lines, manufactured from old beams and timbers reaved from barns and housebreakers' debris, is at the present time carried on with a good deal of ingenuity, and it is not infrequently remarked among the Philistines that such skilful imitations must detract from the value of original pieces. A greater fallacy never existed. Each one of these faked reproductions could be successfully refuted by the expert connoisseur, and as a parallel it may be remarked that the modern reproduction of ushabtiu and scarabs by thousands has never deteriorated the value of one single true piece dear to Egyptologists.
