Solid Mahogany Chippendale

Enhance Your Home With An Armoire

When you think of a closet, you think of a small room inset in your house or apartment, which is used to store your clothing, bedding or what have you.

Old houses usually weren't built with such specialty rooms, and people placed their clothing in wardrobes or armoires. Even today there are sometimes apartments or homes which do not have space for built-in closets, so it is necessary to purchase a wardrobe.

What would be the best wardrobe for your living area?

Frankly, you can put any closet organization system in your living area, even if you don't have a specific roomto put it in! Simply secure the rails or shelves to the walls as you would have done in the closet.

But a wardrobe complete with decorative doors to block off the view of the items within is the most popular way to go.

These wardrobes, or armoires, are usually made of wood. Depending on your price range you can get them in metal, plastic, particle board, pressed wood and Solid Wood.

Explore the world of antiques
Antique armoires are in demand, but they can run into considerable sums of money. If you're interested in acquiring an antique armoire (an antique is defined as an item that is over 100 years old), then make sure you go through a reputable dealer.

When you think of antique furniture such as armoires, don't think just of the classics from England such as those designed by Chippendale, Sheraton and Hepplewhite (the "big three" of British furniture makers). There's many an American antique armoire designer who deserves to be discovered. Do some research into furniture history in various countries and you'll be glad you did.

But, if you're not in to antiques then there are plenty of modern day armoires to meet your needs, offered by a plethora of companies. You can search the web and find practically any design ever made.

If you like the look of metal, you can acquire extremely ornate and exotic White Metal armoires, imported from India.

There's nothing to beat mahogany or maple for classic elegance
The classic elegance of wood will never go out of style, of course. Solid wood armoires are expensive, but they add such a look of elegance to your home, as well as assisting you to keep your clothes in style, that they can be well worth the price.

Any armoire you purchase must fit into your home's decor. You'll want to give a thought to the finish, and where you'll place it, as it won't be easily moved once you do so. Make sure you buy as much quality as you can afford, so that the armoire will last for a lifetime.

Chippendale and His School $35.98 Text extracted from opening pages of book: MAHOGANY BEDSTEAD ( EIGHTEENTH CENTURY). LITTLE BOOKS ABOUT' OLD' FURNITURE ENGLISH FURNITURf/ - -.; VOLUME. Ill CHIPPENDALE AND HIS SCHOOL BY J. P. BLAKE ILLUSTRATED NEW YORK FREDERICK A. STOKES COMPANY Printed in Great Britain INTRODUCTION THE name o Chippendale is so generally applied to mahogany furniture that it might seem, on a first inquiry, that he invented this rich and interesting wood, and also every style pertaining to it. Mahogany furniture, antique and other wise, is so often airily described as Chippendale that the term has lost much of its personal significance and become simply generic. The present volume deals with the period in the commencement of which mahogany was first employed in England in the manufacture of furniture approximately in the first quarter of the eighteenth century ( after the death of Queen Anne). For approaching two hundred years, therefore, it has sustained its popularity, and its position is still unchallenged. Certainly in the nineteenth century metal was very generally used in the mating of bedsteads, but in these later days mahogany is again frequently employed for this purpose. A very large quantity of genuine old mahogany furniture has survived to this day, and it is often described in general terms as Chippendale. The number of chairs alone seriously and deliberately described as Chippendale is almost innumerable. vi INTRODUCTION It is needless to remark that this great man did not construct all these chairs. Chippendale was even more an influence rather than an actual producer, and the number of pieces of furniture which, with any approach to authenticity, can be ascribed to his hand could almostbe counted on the fingers. The genius of Chippendale lay in the fact that he gathered ideas from many styles the Dutch, French, Chinese, and Gothic and gave them practical expression and commercial practicability. i No doubt he was a great craftsman, a superb carver, and an accomplished cabinet-maker; but he was more than all this: he was a supreme influ ence, a virile spirit, an inspiration which is with us in our household surroundings to this day. It is sometimes objected that his ideas arc not original; but the answer is that Chippendale was in business as a furniture-maker, and in his appli cation of varied ideas to his work he collected his forms from every available source. He took the Dutch designs which he found to his hand and grafted on to them every style he could come upon from France he took the riband-back chair; from China he took the whole of the forms of a complete phase of his work: for another he took the forms of Gothic architec ture. Nothing came amiss to him. In the present volume many simple pieces arc INTRODUCTION vii illustrated and described which, although cer tainly not the work of Chippendale, are none the less, for their form and being, assuredly attributable to his influence. Such pieces are neither expensive nor very difficult to acq
