Produktbeschreibung
This is the only major work devoted to the evolution of both national and regional vernacular furniture in England from The Middle Ages up to the 20th century. It is also the first to stress the full importance of Oriental influence on 18th century furniture designs; the first to make use of fresh and exciting material salvaged from the 'Mary Rose', and the first to pinpoint precisely the inventions of several items of machinery unsed in furniture-making.
