I just love pinterest! Among all those boards on antique furniture – sometimes there are real treasures. This time I found some good recommendations on books about furniture history. Books are shipped, but before this wonderful discovery I bought some really good books too.<\/p>\n

Book number one is – William Godwin Furniture and Interior Decoration.\u00a0 I made a washstand using one of his fine pieces as a reference. So I was happy to find this book – great illustrations and drawings.<\/p>\n

Some pieces are not really my taste, some I’ve seen in the museums, but still great resource for inspiration.<\/p>\n

Book number two – is American Furniture of the 19th century. I bought it mainly because of the Amazon recommendations, I also read that there were supposed to be some measured drawings. I didn’t find many of them by the way, but the Rococo furniture part is fab. Just in time when I need it for my commission.<\/p>\n

The third book is about English furniture, I bought even more books on it, so this is a good start.<\/p>\n

It’s a great reference book, I didn’t some of the artisans, to be honest. What I like is that you can find anything in here – mirrors, gates, curtains, etc etc.<\/p>\n

Chippendale part is great:<\/p>\n
