The Big Book of Antique Furniture by David P Lindquist

Colonial coverage ranges from 1875 to 1940, while English and Continental coverage is from the Renaissance to the early 20th century and Victorian includes most of the 19th century. Each furniture section includes hundreds of photos, in-depth explanations of furniture styles, history, and current prices. Collectors will learn how to determine value, types of construction techniques and the aging effects of wood. The index makes it easy to locate specific furniture pieces.
