Published in Boston by Houghton Mifflin and Company in1924. Revised 3rd edition. Limited to 515 copies. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The first book on this subject. Initially published in 1891. As the Wards point out(Ames& Ward) Lyon introduced many techniques used by later researchers, including the use of estate and inventory records, newspaper advertisements and cabinetmaker's price books, and he also traveled to England to investigate the origins of his beloved 17th century New England furniture. A pioneering study which is still useful. Stillinger concludes- Lyon's conclusions about the homes of the forefathers have held up startlingly well. The Colonial Furniture ... moreof New England' was so carefully researched and thoughtfully crafted that it remains a standard reference today-an extraordinary accomplishment considering the sophisticated research and technological aids available to the modern student of furniture. No other early furniture scholar's work has the same continuing validity. Dr. Lyon once told an acquaintance that in his medical practice his goal was always to get back to first causes. He took a comparable approach to his furniture studies. With excellent results" Semowich 771. DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8"x11" 285 pages, plus 113 black& white plates. CONDITION NOTES: Some minor soil.

Philadelphia Empire Furniture” By John William Boor. With Allison, Jonathan, Christopher, Peter Boor. Published in Hanover by the University Press of New England in 2006. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: This volume looks closely for the first time at Philadelphia Empire furniture and the development of decorative arts in Philadelphia between 1800 and 1840. The authors explore Neo-Classicism. Contemporary history of Philadelphia, the emergence of Greek-Revival architecture, and the cabinetmakers of Philadelphia Empire furniture. At the beginning of the 19th century Greek-inspired architecture gained popularity in Philadelphia and the city became known for its classically-inspired monumental buildings. Newly designed structures of ancient inspiration were decorated with classical furniture that became the prevailing style ... morein private homes as well as public buildings. The arrival of immigrant craftsmen from Europe in the early 19th century and their subsequent collaboration with American furniture makers produced highly sophisticated Empire designs. Neither French nor English, the designs incorporated purely American elements and became known as American Empire. Nineteenth-century Philadelphia Empire craftsmen were particularly well-known for their extensive motif carving, which often has a fluid, three-dimensional character. Philadelphia Empire Furniture' illustrates in color and describes in detail hundreds of Philadelphia decorative art forms from this period, including wood types, dimensions, and maker(if known) Chapters are dedicated to each of the following forms: card tables. Platform pedestal tables, pier tables, worktables, sofas, chairs, sideboards, secretaries, chests, bedsteads, looking glasses, clocks, and other decorative elements.

AMERICAN 17th CENTURY FURNITURE -WALLACE NUTTING 1921 Classic Pilgrim Century
Furniture of the Pilgrim Century 1620-1720. Including colonial utensils and hardware” By Wallace Nutting. Published in Boston by Marshall Jones Company in 1921. DISCUSSION: The first book published on the subject of American 17th century furniture. Like all Nutting books. Caution is required in figuring out where the good examples end and the restored or re-manufactured examples begin. This book was beset by controversy almost from the start, as within a year a broadside was circulated by an ironworker stating that he had made many of the examples of ironwork illustrated by Nutting. Still, as with other Nutting books, the sheer volume of furniture illustrated, as well as the important place these volumes have occupied in the literature for over three-quarters of a century, make them worth having. Ames& Ward 1. Speaking of both editions ... moreof the title(which were different enough to really qualify as two different books) notes that they"occasionally contain nuggets of information of use to modern researchers" DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8"x11" 587 pages, hundreds of black& white illustrations. With the ownership stamp of Alfred Easton Poor. Alfred Easton Poor[1899-1988] was an American architect. The designer of the Wright Brothers National Memorial, and president of the National Academy of Design in New York from 1966 to 1977.

I bought two antique Windsor chairs from a friend for $1,500. A dealer recently appraised them for $1,250 each. I have been unable to find any information about the cabinetmaker. His mark is machine-carved on both chairs and reads"John M. Bair, Hanover, Penna.ANSWER: The machine-carved marks indicate that your chairs are not antiques. ... moreBair's Cabinet Shop, the name of John M. Bair's business, operated from 1933 to 1964 in Hanover and later Abbottstown, Pa. So your chair dates to Bair's early years in Hanover. Bair's made high-quality reproductions of antique furniture, especially Colonial Revival furniture. So your chairs date from the 1930s at the earliest. They're not antique, but that doesn't mean they're not well-made chairs worth the price you paid or more. IN THIS CATALOG.Example:Washington Sideboard $275.00.

Published by the Headley-Whitney Museum in 2000. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Around the turn of the nineteenth century. A young cabinetmaker from Virginia named Peter Tuttle migrated to Madison County, Kentucky. For the past 30 years or more, a significant group of furniture, including pieces in this exhibition, have been attributed to him. The discovery of a carved'P* Tuttle' mark in the upper drawer of one chest of drawers has led some people to believe that Tuttle was the maker of this case-on-frame furniture.

To help determine the possible origins of the pieces, over 60 examples ... morewere surveyed; more are known to exist. The large quantity of surviving pieces, coupled with the fact that there are many variations in construction, suggests that more than one craftsman or shop was at work on this group.

FAKE & ALTERED ANTIQUE FURNITURE - 1931 CLASSIC by Hebert Cescinsky
The Gentle Art of Faking Furniture” By Herbert Cescinsky. Published in London by Chapman& Hall in 1931. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: One of the most influential and best-loved books on fake furniture and its attendant hazards. Fakers, detecting alterations, etc. As collecting"old things" became more popular at the end of the 19th century and start of the 20th, the trade in restored(faked) furniture exploded, with able cabinetmakers and unscrupulous dealers happily pasting genuinely old parts together to create"complete" examples of rare pieces, usually with no notice to the purchaser that any restoration work had been done beyond a brisk dusting and perhaps a new coat of varnish. Into this morass of confusion, collusion and corruption Herbert Cescinsky, longtime dealer and the author of more ... morethan half a dozen respected books on antique English furniture, clocks and interiors, happily waded with this much-needed book. Ames& Ward call it"literate and entertaining" And go on to note that its lessons, though decades old, apply"with equal force today and almost appear to have been written as a cautionary for some modern historians-even though the remarks are directed at the collector of English furniture, students of American objects can profit by many of the general observations. See, in particular, the list of questions stated in Chapter 5, Detective Methods and the Problem of Restoration' DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8"x10.5" 168 pages plus 288 black& white plates. CONDITION NOTES: Covers lightly dusty. Some splits to the cloth along the hinges. Pages lightly toned, several with minor"offsetting" shadows from old paper inserts, but otherwise clean and nice, with a tight binding.

Guide du Meuble à écrire 255 pages color photos Hard cover 25 x 17 cm Francais/French En Europe. Si l'écriture est restée longtemps une connaissance seulement partagée par une petite partie de la population, elle va se développer dans de nouvelles couches sociales à partir du XVIIe siècle, grâce à l'invention de l'imprimerie. Cet essor va entraîner une production de meubles et objets destinés à faciliter l'écriture et à conserver les écrits. Cet ouvrage retrace donc l'évolution du mobilier voué à cet usage depuis le Grand Siècle jusqu'au commencement du XXe en France, mais également dans d'autres pays d'Europe et de l'Amérique du Nord. Chaque type de meuble, de style ou rustique, est étudié ... morechronologiquement.

FRENCH BOOK : Le Style Louis XIII (antique furniture,cabinet,chairs ...)
Le Style Louis XII 142 pages color photos Hard cover with dust jacket 26 x 24 cm 0.986 kg Francais/French Ce premier volume de la collection«des Styles» s’attache à la période du règne de Louis XIII. C’est-à-dire plus précisément à la période qui court de 1610 à 1643, mais en déborde aussi légèrement par la rareté des exemples subsistants. Après avoir retracé l’environnement social, l’évolution générale de la résidence et du décor, l’auteur s’attache à la description du mobilier de menuiserie et du mobilier d’ébénisterie. Il décrit ainsi l’évolution des différents types de meubles, du lit au coffre en passant par les sièges, étoffes, tapisseries, tables, armoires. Le cabinet, par sa position ... moreprestigieuse due à ses matériaux, se taille la part du lion dans le mobilier subsistant et dans l’iconographie. Pour terminer cette étude, sont étudiés des éléments décoratifs annexes tels que paravents, rideaux, luminaire, chenets, tableaux. L’iconographie, qui reproduit l’essentiel des meubles de cette époque subsistant actuellement, est habilement complétée par des gravures et des peintures. Powered by The free listing tool.

FRENCH BOOK : Charles Topino 1742-1803 (antique marquetry furniture)
Charles Topino 1742-1803 167 pages color and b&w photos Hard cover with dust jacket 28 x 22 cm 1.127 kg Francais/French Établi à Paris dès 1745. Topino travailla longtemps comme ouvrier libre dans le faubourg Saint-Antoine. Sa réputation, nationale et internationale lui attire une importante clientèle faite de marchands-merciers et de confrères ébénistes. Topino était capable de produire de l'excellente marqueterie. Sa créativité la plus étonnante s'est exprimée dans les motifs d'ustensiles dont certains meubles ne font que souligner l'ambition décorative. Mais d'autres décors, floraux ou d'architecture, prouvent la diversité de son talent. Son audace commerciale s'est par ailleurs manifestée dans la conception d'un vaste ... moreréseau de distributeurs et dans la vente de marqueteries prêtes à l'emploi. Autant de qualités qui lui sont personnelles, mais auxquelles il convient d'ajouter, sans forcer le trait, une personnalité originale et séduisante. Powered by The free listing tool.

ANTIQUE AMERICAN FURNITURE & ANTIQUES - BAYOU BEND IMA HOGG COLLECTION
American Decorative Arts and Paintings in the Bayou Bend Collection” By David B. Warren. Michael K. Brown, Elizabeth Ann Coleman, Emily Ballew Neff. Published by the Museum of Fine Arts. Houston in 1998. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A stunning. Oversized catalog of this important collection, including furniture, art, textiles, silver, ceramics and glass. The'Bayou Bend Collection' was assembled by Ima Hogg. A collector of American arts during the first"Golden Age" from the 1920s through the 1950s. Bayou Bend is the former home of Houston philanthropist Ima Hogg. The mansion, designed by architect John F. Staub, was built between 1927 and 1928 for Ima Hogg and her brothers, William C. and Michael Hogg. Miss Hogg created a series of gardens that were intended as outdoor rooms for living and entertaining. ... moreIn 1957, Miss Hogg donated her home and her collection to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Bayou Bend opened to the public in 1966. Staub's plan for Bayou Bend combined eighteenth-century Georgian architecture with elements that are distinctly Southern and of Spanish Creole architecture. The collection at Bayou Bend presently consists of approximately 4,700 objects that reflect historic and stylistic periods from 1620 to 1870 installed in some 28 period room settings that showcase American decorative arts from 1620 through 1870. Miss Hogg began assembling this important collection of American decorative arts in 1920. To provide suitable settings for these extraordinary antiques. Staub designed simple but stately interiors in the style of colonial American rooms. In 1920, while sitting for a portrait by artist Wayman Adams, Miss Hogg admired a simple armchair belonging to the artist that was made in colonial America and later obtained a similar Queen Anne chair for herself. Almost half a century later, Miss Hogg acquired the very same chair that she had first seen in Adams' studio. From the time I acquired my first Queen Anne armchair in 1920, I had an unaccountable

Collector ... moreand horticulturist Henry Francis du Pont(1880–1969) opened his childhood home, Winterthur, to the public. Today, Winterthur is the premier museum of American decorative arts, with an unparalleled collection of nearly 90,000 objects made or used in America between about 1640 and 1860. The collection is displayed in the magnificent 175-room house, much as it was when the du Pont family lived here, as well as in permanent and changing exhibition galleries. Winterthur is set amidst a 1,000-acre preserve of rolling meadows and woodlands. Designed by du Pont, its 60-acre naturalistic garden is among America’s best, with magnificent specimen plantings and massed displays of color. Graduate programs and a preeminent research library make Winterthur an important center for the study of American art and culture. In his later years, du Pont wrote: I sincerely hope that the Museum will be a continuing source of inspiration and education for all time, and that the gardens and grounds will of themselves be a country place museum where visitors may enjoy as I have, not only the flowers, trees and shrubs, but also the sunlit meadows, shady wood paths, and the peace and great calm of a coun
