Download or read book Neat Pieces written by and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neat Pieces is a detailed, extensively illustrated survey of the major forms and makers of the "plain style" of furniture made and used by Georgians in the 1800s. Simply designed, solidly constructed of local woods, and usually unadorned, such pieces were used daily by their owners for storage, sleeping, eating, and more. Today, this furniture is read by historians, folklorists, and other experts for clues into a past way of life. It is also prized by museums, antiques dealers and auction houses, and furniture appraisers, collectors, and makers. Neat Pieces first appeared as the companion volume to the Atlanta History Center's seminal 1983 exhibit of the same name. The exhibit featured 126 exemplary pieces of furniture, including chairs, tables, huntboards, washstands, and candlestands. Each of them is described and illustrated in this book. Photographs in the original edition of Neat Pieces were black-and-white; here they are color. A new foreword by Deanne Levison looks at related publications and exhibits of the subsequent two decades. The introduction, by William W. Griffin, provides information on furniture forms, nomenclature, and finishes. Also included in the book is a list of more than twelve hundred nineteenth-century Georgia furniture craftsmen, with key details of their lives and work. 126 exemplary pieces of furniture (including chairs, tables, huntboards, washstands, and candlestands) 172 color photographs, 17 black-and-white photographs Information on furniture forms, nomenclature, and finishes Details about more than twelve hundred nineteenth-century Georgia furniture craftsmen

Book excerpt: This book presents a concise analysis of the many influences on furniture design in the Victorian period both in Britain and the US. Edwards investigates the development of new and traditional materials and innovative techniques and machinery, to show how these changed the face of furniture design and production. The history of furniture has until recently been mostly concerned with individual designers, the aesthetic appreciation of their products and the assumption that furniture is solely a decorative art. Victorian furniture challenges these notions and brings techniques and materials to the forefront of the debate about how design decisions were made. In this clear and concise analysis of the many influences on furniture design in Britain and the United States in the Victorian period the author covers mechanical decoration, veneering, decorative finishes, manufacturing, and patents. The many new techniques and materials developed in this period, such as bentwood, papier mache, metal, upholstery springs, and wicker, are discussed along with the design possibilities they opened up.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cabinetmakers and the furniture of the mid-nineteenth century is a field in its infancy. While a great deal is known about the various styles and their popularity and about some of the makers of these styles, there is not a vast amount that can be documented as made by a particular cabinet shop. We have attempted to put the styles in chronological order where possible. Several of the cabinetmakers, however, worked over long periods and in a variety of styles. -- Preface.
