Gold spine titles. xi p., 1 L., 274 p. 22 cm. Pen&Ink art, Facsimiles. Glossary and Index. In the 21st century, antique furnishings and household items have become devalued as "big box" crated furnishing kits gain in ease of acquisition. Those who own furnishings, lamps, etc. from other centuries have been introduced to their durability and varied styles of craftsmanship through inheritance or quest. This volume educates on the history of those pieces, and the information has value itself, including the language of antiques. So, it's a buyers' market. Go out armed with knowledge for your best investment.
