Description

Georgian Cabinet-Makers. By Ralph Edwards and Margaret Jourdain. 'This book is concerned with an aspect of English furniture, hitherto unfamiliar, and is based on researches of which the results are here brought together and summarised for the first time. The aim has been to state briefly what is known of the careers of leading cabinet-makers of the eighteenth century, and to assemble a corpus of furniture which can be assigned to them individually. It will be apparent at once that the aim has not been to provide a dictionary. Perhaps a really comprehensive list is not possible, and if attempted would inevitably resolve itself into a tedious catalogue of innumerable names; for many hundreds of separate firms were engaged in producing furniture in the course of the century.' From the introduction of this book. A VERY LARGE BOOK THAT WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FREIGHT.
