This illustrated, easy reference guide is packed with all the information you need to help you date English furniture and bring its history to life. The book looks at many different furniture types, showing how form, style and the types of wood used changed from the Tudor period through to the Art Deco years of the 1930s. It highlights key details, what to look for when dating furniture, and introduces significant furniture designers and their importance. There's also a look at how changes in English society and fashion resulted in the introduction of specific pieces. The book should appeal to those who love antique shows on TV and looking round antique shops and country houses, but would like to know more about furniture and the stories behind it.

Over 1700 of Skibinski's line drawings present a visual approach to the identification of antique furnishings. The book is arranged in chronological sequences (17th century through the early 20th century) by type of furniture, from tables and settees to desks and bookcases. Butler and Johnson have included some important information for the novice and the experienced collector: the sources of furniture used as models for the illustrations; lists of museums, art galleries, and special displays of outstanding collections of furniture; a selected bibliography and a glossary; the anatomy of a piece of furniture; and a brief history of the periods of furniture and furniture makers. Highly recommended for public libraries and other subject collections.
