Victorian Antique Furniture
Victorian antique furniture includes an exclusive range of tables and chairs and other types of furniture, which were crafted and used back in the Victorian Period (1837 – 1901). This era was considered one of the most prosperous eras of Britain, with vast improvements in many fields such as industries and education. The number of middle class homes rose, causing a large increase in architectural improvements, such as houses and furniture.
Victorian antique furniture was based on previous eras such as the Tudor and Elizabeth Periods, William and Mary and Queen Anne Periods and the Georgian and Regency Period, although Victorian antique furniture is heavier in design. Victorian antique furniture was made from quality materials, and was often considered as works of art with their floral designs, beautiful mouldings and engraved finishes.
The furniture used in the Victorian age was typically made of wood, some were made with iron, and the rest were made with a mixture of both. The main woods used were mahogany, rosewood, oak and satinwood. Chairs and sofas are made from wood and different types of cloth, the latter of which include brocades, velvets and tapestries with different patterns and colours. Iron was mostly used in Victorian bedroom furniture for support. Victorian furniture was more curved, shiny and upholstery was a main factor in design. Turned knobs, scrolled backs and usually plain moldings with a small amount of carved decoration was used.
Early Victorian furniture was mainly constructed by hand, but towards the latter end of the period, machines were used more regularly on carved decoration. The well known cabinet designers – Holland and Sons, Gillows and others used excellent materials to produce furniture of the highest quality.
Victorian antique furniture is considered an epitome of luxury and was used widely to enhance Victorian dressing. Ultimately, furniture from this era is some of the finest ever produced. Nowadays, Victorian antique furniture is not just limited to the confines of a museum or for decorating an expensive hotel, but is very well suited for a living room, study room or bed room of any household that will respect their furniture. Victorian antique furniture is very much in demand and fashion, and adds class and elegance to any home.
There are so many different kinds of Victorian antique furniture – cabinets, bedroom sets, bookcases, beds, dressers, chest, sofa type tables, round dining tables and kidney desks to name a few.
