About this book
Chats on Cottage and Farmhouse Furniture is the title of this work. The list of illustrations includes, among others, a monk's bench, an oak chest with drawers underneath and joint stools. The text lists topics including, among others, the Queen Anne period, the Chippendale period and the age of machinery.
In the table, the cabriole leg showed early signs of passing away, the text says. The country maker was slow to adopt the cabriole leg when it was fashionable, but when it became unfashionable he was equally loth to depart from his accustomed style. A tripod table is described as Chippendale style, probably unique, with elaborate rococo work. A list of subject entries includes, among others, corner chairs, Derbyshire chairs and the Cupid's bow top rail.
