Focusing entirely on the mid-19th Century movement in which simple, elegant furniture began to re-emphasise the importance of handcraftsmanship over Victorian mass-production, this book begins with a brief history of the era followed by joinery basics and a series of detailed projects and plans. These include a sofa and matching chair, dining table, bedroom furniture, elegant accessories such as a table lamp, wall sconce and nesting tables, as well as a beautiful bookcase. Each piece is sure to inspire and challenge the woodworking fan of this classic yet current style.
