Furniture - An Explanatory History

Angebote / Angebote:

This text contains a detailed treatise on the history of furniture, with the intention of the author being to present all the information necessary for the appreciation and enjoyment of furniture. It covers various subjects not elsewhere to be found in a single book on furniture: they are usually treated separately, as unrelated technical or social subjects. The reader will find in it a complete picture of the succession of furniture-styles in the past, and of the part that furniture has played in the lives of those for whom it was made. The chapters of this book include: 'The Idea Of Furniture', 'Furniture Materials', 'The Makers of Furniture', 'How Furniture is Made', 'Decorative Treatment', 'Periods of French Furniture', 'Periods of English Furniture', and 'Modern Furniture and Interior Decoration'. We are proud to republish this antique book now complete with anew introduction on the history of furniture.
