Excerpt from Antique FurnitureThe peculiar charm about old furniture genuinely antique - fascinates those who study it, and my earnest hope is that this volume may be the means of adding to the ranks of those who wax enthusiastic about collectors hobbies, and that they may by the interest they take in everything that is old, help to increase that atmosphere of refinement which hangs about the environment of a home connoisseur.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
