Synopsis "A Masterclass in Antique Furniture: How to Find and Identify American, English, Dutch and French Antique Furniture, Clocks and Musical Instruments (in English)"
This superb guide informs the reader on how to identify and discover the most gorgeous furniture ever to grace Europe and North America. With intense descriptions steeped in history and experience, this book brings the time tested expertise of its author - New England based antique dealer and specialist Thomas M. Clark - to the table in a world beating display of descriptive finesse and passion. Objects from chairs to beds to tables to cabinets are described in detail, with their making and prominence properly placed in the context of their time and place of manufacture. The author aims to arouse interest and natural passion by including anecdotes of the time, having researched and sourced poignant quotes and vignettes from the times in which these pieces emerged freshly worked from quality wood. Together with informing the reader about the pieces themselves, most of the items described are accompanied by detailed illustrations.
