Published in New York by Thames& Hudson in 2008. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Heavily illustrated with 450 color photos and 100 additional black and white figures. This catalog offers a complete and authoritative study available of regional furniture design and use in Scotland.

The story ... moreof their quest is itself an adventure, and the objects he photographed often represent the life and death of a community, the vital relics of a vanished culture.

LONDON FURNITURE MAKERS & THEIR ENGRAVED TRADE CARDS - 17th 18th 19th CENTURY
The London Furniture Makers. From the Restoration to the Victorian Era, 1660-1840” By Sir Ambrose Heal. Published in London by B.T. Batsford in 1953. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: This book was the result of thirty years of research. And includes the names, dates and addresses of 2,500 London cabinetmakers and cabinetmaking firms. There are also illustrations of many of their dramatic and beautiful engraved trade cards. An important reference work. Sir Ambrose Heal[1872-1959] was an English furniture designer and businessman. Heal was the great-grandson of John Harris Heal. The founder of the Heals furniture manufacturing and retail business. He served a two-year apprenticeship to a cabinetmaker in Warwick and six months working for Graham and Biddle, furnishers, of Oxford Street. In the mid-1890s he began designing ... moresimple, sturdy furniture, often in plain oak(in contrast to Heals' standard"Queen Anne" and"Old English" styles) Although initially his designs were not popular with sales staff, who called them"prison furniture" they found a place at exhibitions of the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society and soon became so successful that prejudices were overcome. Undoubtedly influenced by the teachings of Ruskin and William Morris, he embraced the use of machinery where appropriate. In 1913, on the death of his father, he was elected chairman of Heals, using this position to champion artistic design within furniture manufacture and marketing. In 1933. He was knighted for raising standards of design, and in 1939 was appointed a royal designer for industry. He established an art gallery at the Tottenham Court Road premises showing works by Picasso, Wyndham Lewis and Modigliani. Artists such as Claud Lovat Fraser designed the company's posters, and its catalogues contained essays by influential art critics. The overall effect was to promote Heals as an iconic brand. Heal's influence over the company diminished in the mid-1930s, when one of his sons became

Selected Furniture, Works of Art, Silver, Textiles, Costume, Linen, European Porcelain and Glass” The catalog to an auction held in London by Christie's on May 13-14. 1996. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A selection of very fine antiques- superb English furniture. Silver and ceramics, and an extraordinary assortment of antique linens& textiles. Parham Park is an Elizabethan house in Cootham. Between Storrington and Pulborough, West Sussex, South East England, originally owned by the Monastery of Westminster and granted to Robert Palmer by King Henry VIII in 1540. The foundation stone was laid in 1577 by the two year old Thomas Palmer, and Parham has been a family home ever since. Thomas Bishopp(later Sir Thomas Bishopp, 1st Baronet) bought ... moreParham House in 1597. For 325 years his descendants continued to live at Parham House Estate until January 1922. Then in 1922 the Hon. Clive Pearson, younger son of Viscount Cowdray, bought Parham from Mary, 17th Baroness Zouche in her own right, and he and his wife Alicia opened the house to visitors in 1948, after the Second World War when it had also been home to evacuee children and Canadian soldiers. Off the Long Gallery at the top of the house there is a fascinating exhibition which touches on the period between 1922 and 1948, with many family photographs as well as photographs of the building works which took place during that time. Mr and Mrs Pearson, followed by their daughter Veronica Tritton, spent more than 60 years carefully restoring Parham and filling it with a sensitively chosen collection of beautiful old furniture, paintings and textiles, also acquiring items originally in the house. There is a particularly important collection of early needlework. What they created at Parham is a rare survival of mid 20th Century connoisseurship within a major Elizabethan house. Now owned by a charitable trust, Parham House and Gardens are surrounded by some 875 acres(3.54

Immigrant, and art collector and benefactor who cut a swath through the Boston and American collecting scenes. The magnificent bequests of American furniture and paintings he and his wife made to Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts earned them a place in the pantheon of Boston’s patrons of the arts. A December 22. 1941 article in Time noted- With the aid of a Russian-born tenor, Boston's Museum of Fine Arts has acquired a million-dollar gift in the form of a collection of its own choosing.

Installed in a marble mansion in Newport, Karolik, inspired by the workmanship displayed in his wife's inherited family relics, decided to make early American antiques his hobby. Badly needing advice, he made a deal with the Boston Museum of Fine Arts: they should guide and direct him in making purchases, he would present the completed collection to the museum. Never had any of Boston's own sons so delighted her museum. Armed with Mrs. Karolik's introductions to some of the oldest families, the museum's Decorative Arts Curator Edwin James Hipkiss and Collector Karolik knocked on doors from New Hampshire to Georgia, rooted out many an old desk, clock, silver tankard, portrait. While Curator Hipkiss pointed out good and bad features, Collector Karolik asked questions, absorbed information.

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.

AMERICAN ANTIQUE PHILADELPHIA EMPIRE PERIOD FURNITURE & CABINETMAKERS
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. A separate chapter is devoted to the previously unpublished sketchbook of accomplished craftsman Anthony G. Quervelle. Besides Quervelle, other talented and successful Philadelphia furniture makers included Michel Bouvier, Charles White,

Channing Hare[1899-1976] was known as"the crown prince of society portrait artists" Palm Beach Social Diary noted- Born in New York. Channing Weir Hare was a renowned Palm Beach artist, having studied at the Art Students League in New York and long associated with the prestigious Ogunquit artist’s colony. ... moreFor many years, he and artist Mountford Coolidge were inseparable, operating an antique business in Ogunquit. Fellow artist Stephen“Stevie” Hopkins Hensel fondly called Channing his"Uncle Bunny" and] shared'Son Julio' a 97-room castle on Majorca, where the locals referred to Hare as“Your Excellency. Liros Gallery's biography adds- Hare studied under the renowned George Bellows and Robert Henri. The flamboyant society painter was often associated with Mountfort Coolidge. With whom he operated a small antiques business. Although respected and successful painters in their own right, they] were identified more with the summer society life than it's art colony by many artists and local residents. Close friends, fellow artists and even business partners, the two men were synonymous with glamour, flamboyance, and chic. Despite Hare's seeming preoccupation with the gathering of interesting people for elaborate cocktail parties, he was a brilliant society portrait painter who reportedly commanded between $3,000 and $10,000 for a painting, top prices in those times.

SUPERB ANTIQUE AMERICAN FURNITURE - EDDY NICHOLSON COLLECTION - CHRISTIE'S 1995
An Interesting Auction Catalog- The Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Eddy Nicholson” The catalog to an auction held by Christie's in New York on January 27-28th. 1995. Sale 8082. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The auction sale of the premier Americana collection of the 1980s. Nicholson made headlines in the 1980s when he broke record after record buying premier pieces of American colonial and federal furniture and related decorative arts at auction. And then made headlines again when he sold it all. The catalog Christie's produced for the sale is a sumptuous hardcover, packed so full of color illustrations and folding color plates that it almost explodes right off the bookshelf. Nicholson's 2011 New York Times obituary relates- Eddy G. Nicholson. A spark plug of a man who was the son of a factory worker in Sherman, ... moreTex. began collecting early American artifacts in the early 1980s, flush from his recent success in high finance. His blunt, hard-driving style unnerved some buyers steeped in Old World collector traditions of propriety, art scholarship and, above all, privacy. For one thing, he would sit there with an auction paddle, which was unusual, said John Hays, the deputy chairman of Christie’s America, who became a friend. Important buyers usually sent surrogates or bid by phone, he explained. And if he wanted something, he added, nothing could stop him. Mr. Nicholson helped push prices to unprecedented heights. Bidding on an 18th-century Philadelphia Chippendale wing chair at Sotheby’s in 1986, he made the first bid at $400,000, and kept hoisting his paddle high while imperceptible signals from competitors around the room(an earlobe tug, a crossing of arms) drove the sale price to $1.1 million, then a record for American furniture, according to an account in The New York Times. Mr. Nicholson got his wing chair. In 1980 Mr. Nicholson was president of Congoleum, a publicly traded conglomerate involved in military contracting, auto supplies and floor covering, when he and a fello

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.
