About this product

Product Information

This is an inspired concept. It is the brainchild of an incurably inquisitive historian whose totally infectious enthusiasm has gained him the cooperation of some heavyweight supporters and contributors to enable the reader to identify the style of a master craftsman, to recognise the difference between good and the finest quality and to have enough general knowledge of the subject to get added pleasure when looking at an antique, whether it be in a friend's home, a stately mansion or a museum collection John Bly, The Antiques Roadshow An incredible, comprehensive introduction to the subject of British Furniture. Written especially for those who wish to know about the subject, but don't know where to start, this book focuses on fifty of the greatest designers of British Furniture, spanning 1600 - 2000. Illustrations of the best pieces introduce each designer and complement the designers' biographies. Each section is written by an eminent expert on the subject. Contents: The Beginning of the Present: Stability and Professionalism Dr Clive Edwards The Seventeenth Century: Architects and Activists Dr Clive Edwards Upholstery Dr Peter J Brewer Furniture of the Eighteenth Century: Inspiration and Individualism Treve Rosoman The Nineteenth Century: Empire and Eclecticism Jonathan Meyer The Arts & Crafts Movement: Origins & Ideals Michael Barrington The Twentieth Century: Craft or Mass Production Christopher Claxton Stevens 584 colour & 115 b/w illustrations

    I buy from this seller all the time and believe them to be the best of the BIG second-hand UK sellers. Comms are excellent and they respond quickly and make a real effort to resolve issues. Pricing is good and descriptions accurate and fair. Postage is free so there won't be any extra packing but I've never had a problem with items damaged in transit.

    A smooth and professional transaction throughout. The item was exactly as described, clearly listed, and fairly priced. Communication from the seller was prompt, polite, and helpful, with dispatch confirmed quickly. The parcel was securely packaged and arrived in excellent condition, ahead of the expected delivery date. Care was taken at every stage of the process. I would be happy to buy from this seller again—many thanks for a reliable and well-handled sale.
