There are as many styles in the world of furniture and design as there are tastes to desire them. From the somber dark woods of the Jacobean period to the geometric characteristics of Art Deco, there is something for everyone, and often making a choice is the hardest part. They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it is certainly true in the furnishing world.

Let’s run through some of the more well-known styles, defining and categorizing them so that with a little understanding, we can better analyze our tastes and desires. From rustic to formal, simple to elaborate, furniture creates a mood and shows off personal taste to best effect.

17th Century Furniture – Furniture has come a long way from the heavy 17th century Jacobean influences. This mediaeval-style furniture was typically plain wood with rush seats, straight lines and characteristically dark wood. In later years Early American style evolved, with typical European influence brought by the immigrants to the New World of America. In contrast, Louis XIV was busy creating the splendours and opulence of Versailles, with ornate gold carvings, fine artwork and magnificent craftsmanship in every room.

The later William and Mary style brought trumpet turned legs, ball feet and padded upholstery to English parlours with a new look in oriental lacquer work.

18th Century Furniture – As Queen Anne ascended the English throne in 1702, furnishings became more refined, with graceful cabriole legs, rococo ornate trimmings and shell curves. Tapestry and chintz were popular and this became known as Queen Anne style.

Colonial style American furniture was more conservative than English furniture of the same period, featuring carved pillars and less ornamentation. Following Queen Anne, Georgian style appeared and was particularly identifiable in architecture. In furniture, carved cabriole legs were the fashion, along with S-shaped curves and motifs. In the latter half of the 18th century, Chippendale furniture was in vogue, especially after the publication of Chippendale’s book of designs. His furniture was graceful, delicate and cultured and was further developed by Adam and Hepplewhite who introduced tapered legs, veneers and inlay to great effect.

From 1780-1820 Sheraton style was the most reproduced style in America during the Federal period, with bow-fronted chests and cabinets. Chairs now had sloping arms and upholstered seats with central splat detail on the backs.

19th Century Furniture – Shaker furniture is still a popular style today. It is defined by the simple, utilitarian furniture approved of by the religious communities in America. It is typically plain and unadorned, as was the architecture and lifestyle of those early immigrants.
Back in England, the Victorian era heralded much heavier and darker furniture than before. It is easily recognizable by its Gothic influence, and heavy substantial proportions. It often had elaborate carving or ornamentation to offset the dark finish of the oak, mahogany and walnut woods.

20th Century Furniture, and Onwards – With the dawn of the 20th century, Art Nouveau was a refreshing change. Furniture made a tremendous departure from what had gone before. Chair backs were balloon-shaped or bentwood. Furniture had curving lines, scalloped fronts and intricate patterns. This morphed into the Art Deco period which featured abstract designs, ornamental motifs, rectilinear shapes and a certain geometric style. It took the world by storm at the Paris Exhibition of 1925 after the dreary days of World War I. The Art Deco style is clearly illustrated in the pastel-coloured architecture of South Beach, Miami and the furniture within.

In furniture the Mid-Century Modern style was progressing, particularly influenced by Charles and Ray Eames, Arne Jacobsen and Gio Ponti, whose mass-produced designs in man-made materials revolutionised furniture in the mid 20th century western world.

From the 1960’s onwards furniture became Contemporary. Scandinavian ideas featured light natural wood, with simple lines, utilitarian design and very little ornamentation. This was later developed still more by such designers as Marc Newson into the Post Modern and Contemporary style which is popular today for modern homes.

This is the story so far, but progress does not stand still. With the advent of new materials, glass furniture and new innovations, styles continue to develop. No doubt by the end of the 21st century, several new terms will have been added to the dictionary of furniture design and style.

From contemporary modern furniture, all the way back to antique furniture – Crawleys Furniture has a wide range of items that can work with your home or office needs.

Europe between 1600 and 1750 was an area of new scientific discoveries, new philosophies, new political ideologies, development of cities, time of social transformations and time of absolutism. In brief it was time of great transition, social adolescence – it was dynamic and turbulence time. Baroque as each multimedial style reflects this social, cultural and political mood. New art dimension was supported by powerful Roman Catholic Church as perfect propaganda instrument and by despotic European leaders as kings – emperors. As a consequence this style as other before was plying in theatrical rules to achieve the biggest impression. In fact were differences in style dependent from part of Europe, social patronage or function of art, but what about interiors…?

Tropme l’oeil

Illusory paint technique commonly used in baroque for great – scale ceilings pictures but also as a mural, oil and furniture. It was applied both in churches, palaces, private residential houses, in galleries, libraries, halls, and bedrooms or internal domes with mainly allegorical scenes. From great painters should to mention Pietro da Cortona, Andrea Pozzo, Baciccio and Charles Le Brun.

Stucco Work

It is kind of application used on walls or as a cartouches for trompe l’oeil in manner of three dimensional decoration. Forms to use in this period were s-shaped, organics and ovals. Common were gilding, silvering or painting stucco with sharp colours. Final effect was more similar to sculpture than basic form.

Gilding

Gilding was an application of thin layers of gold on different surfaces as plaster, wood or metal. In the case of furniture similar technique was Ormolu, as spectacular as deathly dangerous for workers using it because of poisonous fumes generated in that process.

Wall treatment and coverings

The walls were treated in different ways, with wood paneling, painting in fresco, with stucco work and plaster, covering by wallpapers, tapestries, large – scale mirrors (includes Venetian Mirrors), with enormous windows (includes French Windows) extending interiors on gardens or artistic creating landscape and with carved wooden doors. Other types of wall elements were marble pilasters, columns and fireplaces with masterpieces mantels. Wallpapers in baroque were both, imported from China with beautiful, rich colourful patterns and also rich, damasks. In both cases it gives oriental taste. Tapestries were know before, but in baroque considerable development in production was evident. The most remarkable workshops were in Italy – Agostino Melissi and Francesco Barberini, some in France and Netherlands Mirrors in baroque constituted particular facility. Firstly, they expended the interiors and intensified dynamic impression but what is more important put into the rooms theatrical, unreal and mysterious aura. It could be small or medium, handed on the wall carved and framed, covering large parts of walls of which an excellent example was Galerie des Glasses in Versailles, where mirrors were made by first royal glass manufacture founded in 1665 on the initiative of Louis XIV and Colbert, still existing today. Windows as a symbol of status were used to greate scale with transparent glass. Divided in rectangles, toped with arcs to let the light penetrate the rooms, give clearity architectural details and integrate interiors with fabulous gardens. Marble pilatsers and columns were elements which divided walls into the section for sculptures or paintings displays or to set the pace and floating impression. Chimneypieces in Baroque were carved especially from marble, decorated with gilded ornaments and frequently were parts of wall’s composition with mirrors, columns, pediments, sculptures, lights and other movable objects. A sometimes mantel includes timber or steel parts such as parts of decoration and essential for fireplaces equipments.

Floor

In fact, floor coverings were rarity but great baroque achievements were wood parquets arranged with simple geometrical patterns with multicolored timber. Sometimes stone or marble were used in parquet order. Typical woods for parquet were cherry, maple and beech and other types of hardwoods as they may be cleaned easily and are more durable.

Stairs

Other very important element of baroque interiors were stairs, because of its forms rooms could definitely change movable character. Usually stones stairs were twisted into the space, curved line put energy and permanently turbulence. Widely settled with stone or metal balustrades, carved and often topped by sculptures and lights.

Wood, woodwork and furniture

Timber as a material was very preferable and common in that period. Usually used were oak and walnut in view of flexibility, natural abilities and sustainability. It was the great material for wall paneling, later it could by incrusted by decorative layers exotic woods like mahogany or zebrawood, common gilded and painted. It was used to build cupboards, balconies, canopies, cabinets, book shelves or other steady equipment for new types of rooms like libraries, wealthy and powerful citizens or ecclesiastical interiors. Another woods elements were doors, rich carved, scientific objects like globes or measures instruments. Furniture to compare it with renaissance gained more ornaments, more curved lines and bulging shapes. They were often painted with techniques imitating marbling or graining, lavish gilded, with inlays exotics material like ivory, tortoise – shells and silver.

Lights

Both, natural and artificial light in baroque had particular meaning. As many other inventions as light stunt vastly usable as decorative elements of contemporary interiors. Heavy, large – scale’s crystal chandelier or made from bronze with glass finish were used as often as possible.

Sculpture and other objects

Indispensible elements were sculpture and also other objects to be connected with news inventions. Because movement was one the most important principles in baroque and sculptures as objects reflected human movement that this medium turn into basic interior elements of this period. Arguably the greatest Master of this time was Bernini. Mainly marble sculptures as human portraits or group of people in most cases with ecclesiastical themes were arranged like free-standing, standing in niches, as tombs and large compositions. In late baroque one more element had begun his existence. As a new device for time measure clock became a new element which was more decorative then usable but always with triple meaning of dynamism: forms of clock, movement of hands and changing of time.

To summarise, baroque as a style was so unconsciously varying that final effect of artistic creation was very often as splendid as kitsch.

You will agree that the perfect modern home should be elegant, yet comfortable, eclectic, and yet consistent. You may think that you need to buy so many things and spend a fortune on furniture and home accessories to make your home look great. It’s not so much about how many items you invest in, but the quality of those few items that will make a real statement in your home. There are certain items -specifically furniture pieces – that will achieve that. It’s what we call the “Must Have Luxury Furniture in Every Modern House”.

The key is to mix styles and items together – new and old, classic and contemporary – in a way that the value of the result is much higher than the value of every item together. The result? Pure luxury!

You probably have a few furniture items and home accessories that you bought years ago and that look boring and outdated. Maybe you have a few old pieces you inherited or were given to you by friends and family. Don’t throw them away! Learn how to combine them with some new pieces, and create a luxury space for yourself and your family to enjoy and relax.

For the living room, a must have is a contemporary chrome floor lamp. I would recommend a replica of the original 1960’s Arc lamp. This lamp will bring a glam retro look, ideal in our modern homes. A luxury item, without the price tag!

What happens if you have an old sofa? Sofas are expensive, so spend money wisely. You’re better off covering it with a casual throw or a faux-fur blanket, and investing in a glamorous chaise longue or Louis XV style chair. That way you will have more place for seating, and you will acquire a real pearl!

Another way to “glam up” your living room is adding a chandelier and a mirror. A glass cut chandelier with droplets always look great, especially if you have high ceilings. Nowadays they are available in many colours, so you can go for a classic clear or black one, but if you’re not afraid of colour, a bright red chandelier is a great choice. When it comes to mirrors, you’re spoiled for choice: a gold Baroque mirror, a black carved one… Don’t be scared to go over the top. Mirrors add depth and light, and always a great option to dress a naked wall! Place it over a console table, or invest in an over-mantle mirror if you have a fireplace. Mirrors look great, and are so much more affordable than any piece of art!

When it comes to furnishing bedrooms, the must have piece is a fabulous bed. The Versailles style beds or the French Chateau ones are more popular than ever, and add that unmistakably French luxury touch that you were craving for long. If your budget is limited, a really good alternative to buying a complete bed frame is to buy an affordable divan bed, and glam it up with a Rococo headboard.

If you’re still within budget, spoil yourself and get two luxurious Venetian bedside tables. Moreover, if you don’t mind going over-budget, don’t hesitate to buy a silver embossed console table. It would look great in the hall, the living room, or even the bedroom. Some console tables are very versatile, and can be used as dressing tables – a must have in every woman’s bedroom. If you choose one that can be used either way, place it in your bedroom, compliment it with a beautiful silver Rococo mirror, and spend some time making sure you look as great as your house!

When it comes to the elegant things of life the French have no rivals. Whether we are talking about fashion, interior design or furniture style, they have that “je ne sais quoi” that makes everything they touch desirable and glamorous.

French fashion has always been elegant, forward thinking and lavish, just like French furniture. If women have always wanted to wear the most beautiful clothes from the best French designers, now there is a craze for furnishing our homes with glamorous French furniture. In a way it’s like extending the fashion trends into our homes. If you want to dress yourself with the most elegant ensemble, why not dress your bedroom accordingly?

A smart and eclectic mix of different French styles will turn your house into a stylish and comfortable home. Create the perfect reading corner with a gorgeous Louis XV armchair, or turn your bedroom into a boudoir with a delightful French Armoire and a Rococo style bed – there aren’t any rooms that won’t benefit from a little French styling.

But where does this craze come from? It all definitely started in Paris, in the 17th century under Louis XIV – “le Roi Soleil” – who ruled from 1643 to 1715, the longest reign of any European monarch. The reign of the French king Louis XIV commences what experts would call the start of ‘elegant’ furniture design in France. French furniture became refined in design, with a lot of emphasis on flowing, symmetrical design. Louis XIV saw the birth of Baroque style. The Versailles Palace was decorated in a strong, dramatic and exuberant style echoing the king’s strong leadership in a period of war and colonial empire building. The French classical Baroque style was grand and impressive, a symbol of the king’s power.

The French aristocracy became obsessed with interior design, beauty, decadent living, and French furniture became desirable, and crazed for ever since.

When Louis XIV died in 1715, his five-year-old great-grandson became Louis XV. As he was too young to take the throne, his uncle Philippe, the Duke of Orleans, was appointed Regent until the king attained legal majority in 1723. The transitional period between the opulent baroque period and the less formal rococo era of Louis XV became known as French Regence.

Let history repeat itself.  What worked hundreds of years ago still works today.  High quality French furniture has a timeless elegance that will last for hundreds of years into the future as well.  To try and explain what makes this style of furniture so timeless would be to explain the French nature and their uncanny ability to capture the imaginations of the artists of the world both past and present.  For those seeking to capture this timelessness there are a few tips to follow when purchasing high quality French furniture.

Seeking the Perfect Piece

There are two types of high quality French furniture that can be purchased.  The first is the genuine article, that actual piece that sat in Louis XV’s drawing room or graced the bedroom of a Marquis’ country manor.  Of course these pieces are hard to come by and are outrageously expensive.  The second method of finding this furniture is by purchasing affordable authentic well-made reproductions.  Whether online or downtown, many furniture stores are now including French period furniture in their collections.

Seeking the Perfect Company



Adding a piece of high quality French furniture to a bedroom or living room means finding a trustworthy company that will provide authentic reproductions instead of cheap inaccurate knockoffs.  It is best to look for a smaller company, especially one that is family run as the owners and employees have a higher stake in ensuring the accuracy of their product.  In addition a smaller company will usually have a better-made and more durable product.

Seeking the Perfect Service

Another important feature of a French furniture supplier is their customer service.  Look for a company that is open to contact either by email or phone call.  A good company will encourage contact with their clients and be more than willing to answer any questions or solve any problem a client might have.

Finding a good company is the first step toward filling a home with the timeless elegance of high quality French furniture.

The thatched roofs of the Middle Ages were prone to attack by caterpillars, mice, and other nasty creatures. They used to fall from the roof and onto the laps of sleeping people below. Eeks!

The Regency style is very much a transitory period in which pieces from the Louis XIV period were transformed by the use of bronze fittings rather than reinvented. This period refined Louis XIV designs to be more practical and comfortable for everyday use. The Duke of Orleans introduced an era of lighter, more graceful French furniture. The beginnings of the Louis XV style start here, with the flowing curves, scallop shell and acanthus leaf we associate with the Louis XV Rococo style becoming prominent.

Nowadays, Regency chairs are more fashionable than ever. They look fabulous in living-rooms and bedrooms. They are comfortable, yet elegant.

Regarded by many as the Golden Age of French furniture, Louis XV’s reign was a time of peace and prosperity, and soon became one of the greatest periods in French furniture design: Rococo style.

It was frivolous, frothy and decadent, just like the King Louis XV and his official mistress Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson, also known as Madame de Pompadour. The Parisian aristocracy embraced new furniture items, such as the chaise longue and the “bergere chair”. Frames were usually gilded or painted. The rococo style featured love, music and nature-inspired motifs and themes, including shells, waves, birds, foliage, vines, flowers, seaweed, rocks and serpents.

Anybody who is passionate about French furniture will have a Louis XV chair on top of their style list. Moreover, nowadays, there are fantastic Louis XV reproduction chairs. You will be able to find them in different finishes and colours. You could even break the rules and have yours re-upholstered with a vibrant and modern fabric: classic with a twist. Whether you go for a classic look or a contemporary one, a Louis XV chair is the must have piece in the living-room, a statement item with lasting appeal. Bergere chairs and chaises longues are also incredibly popular these days.

For the bedroom, a Rococo style bed is the dream of every girl. It’s beautiful and frivolous, exactly what you want in a bedroom! There is no doubt our homes wouldn’t look the same if Rococo style has never existed!

When Rococo began to be considered too frivolous, a classical revival was inspired by the discovery of Pompeii in 1748 – the resulting style became known as neo-classicism or the classical revival. Designers also looked back to the more architectural French furniture of the Louis XIV period.

Gilded wood became popular again, and was used for ceremonial chairs and mirrors.

In our modern homes, a gilded mirror is the perfect focal point for a living room, above a fireplace or a console table. There are so many manufacturers of Baroque, Rococo and Neo-classical style mirrors that you will be spoiled for choice. They are elegant and gorgeous, and a mirror is always a great way to add depth and light into a room.

So why are we crazy for French furniture? Furnishing our homes with French furniture brings us back to those times of royalty and beauty, decadence and glamour. Our lives are complicated; we have stressful jobs and hardly any time for ourselves. That’s why a beautiful and elegant home, full of stylish French furniture can bring a bit of joy and glamour to our existence!
