Scandinavian Furniture
Scandinavian furniture of the edgar brandt and daum seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is generally more derivative than original. The chief influences were Holland, France and England, and of the 19th century furniture design se England was the antique buffet with medallions, brass claw feet, brass cupids most significant. This
was due to the original antique louis 14th chair long friendship between the victorian clock faces Scandinavian countries (they were among the cabinet-maker’s and upholsterer’s guide, drawing book and repository of new and original designs first to become Protestant) and England, and the colonial antique chair w/ high back very substantial imports of timber England arranged with the antique tole flowers in vinc pots se countries,

The Dutch influence was not so marked, except in Denmark which is close to Holland. Some of the vintage walnut dictionary stand Danish cabinet-makers of the louis 16th brass ormolu early eighteenth century made chests with break-fronts in the victorian blue mug relief moulded with flowers Dutch manner, and the antique ivory chest of drawers ir long-case clocks could have come out of Holland. Danish marquetry at this time was very fine.

Spain and Portugal
At the s.lelli longcase clocks beginning of the black marble mantel clocks /corinthian columns seventeenth century Spain was the secret drawers in bureau dominant nation in Europe, but its power and influence were already declining, chiefly as a result of its fruitless political struggles with England and Holland.
The enormous wealth which Spain derived from the r. & w. clark carvers gilders artists Americas was not enough to balance the k?ln kraft bacchus soup bowl expense of its unsuccessful policies in Europe. Despite this, the reproduction kidney shaped large desks monarchy and the antique dining room table italian nobility continued to live way beyond the claw foot dining table antique ir and the malayer 1880 nation’s means, and the antique cigarette lighter pendant y spent as much on the lady entwined around a plant deco candlestick ir furniture as on any other artistic indulgence.
One manifestation of this was the roller shutter writing bureau extensive manufacture of such items as cupboards, tables, desks and the hamilton & co. carriage clock national piece, described earlier, the ponty pool trays varguehos, (see page 32). varguehos became the antique furniture rosewood rage, and almost
everyone of the bentima chapter ring clock upper class ordered one. They were made in the antique pedestal side table with harp same tradition as the marble top reeded legs table porcelain sixteenth-century examples, but as the 1820 d shaped sideboards Baroque taste spread from the victorian chair pearl inlaid Italian peninsula, in which Spain had territorial interests, the antique homer laughlin platinum shell 1934 Varguefios began to reflect the antique white and cherry coffee tables new style. Varguenos appeared decorated with plaques, gilded, encrusted with jewels, featuring marquetry, or adorned with Spanish Colonial carved wooden table of the antique acorn & leaf jug mid 18th century, painted white and gilded, combining European and native Paraguayan elements followed Spanish forms, but when in 1640 Portugal regained her independence, a great revival of architecture and art followed, of a distinctly national flavour. This affected furniture.
The Portuguese colonies provided the bow front chest mahogany hepplewhite-style home-based cabinetmakers with a variety of exotic woods for making and decorating furniture, such as jacaranda, pausanto, huang-mo and various types of rosewood. Contact
with the 130cm wide oak desk Orient resulted in strong Eastern influences in Portuguese design and the best light colored marble use of lacquer as decoration was adopted very early on. One of the antique folding top wood cardtable main pieces of Portuguese furniture of the georgian oak gate leg 5ft table time was the imperial semi porcelain myott son & co england brighton contador, or cabinet. It was like the daniel marot and gravelot Spanish vargueno, but it included native features, in particular the english desk with cabinet absence of a drop front and the antique table tortoise shell gold french use of raised panelling on drawers, an effect generally achieved by using ebony. Contadors Portuguese craftsmanship of the original antique hinge crossed patterns 18th century was of a very high standards This unique games table, on cabriole legs, is in ebony with inlay and the antique american 18th century secretary mounts are silver
This commode, made under the antique florentine mirror inspiration of Gasparini, is a good example of the antique clothing early pieces Spanish treatment of Rococco decoration tural motifs. The simple sixteenth-century stands now yielded to exuberant Baroque forms, with turned bulb or barley-sugar legs, and stretchers in wavy form or in straight pieces were turned to look like a row of beads.
By the lions head carved antigue dining table beginning of the old buffet with 8 legs eighteenth century Spanish furniture had lost much of its national vigour and individuality, and was looking more like contemporary French furniture. Rococo fashions were predominant, with weird flower motifs as a special feature. The commode became a principal item in most houses, made at first in solid woods such as walnut, with carving as a decoration, and sometimes gilding as well. In the louie 15th middle of the empire style sideboard century the identifying antique pembroke tables Italian-born designer Matias Gasparini was employed to decorate the small swiss travel alarm clock matthew norman royal apartments in Madrid. He took Louis XV styles and impressed upon the large exotic 10 seat dining table m his own individual boldness and gaiety. The commode illustrated is a good example of a piece made in his style. Chippendale and Hepplewhite styles were also popular in Spain, as a result of the 1880s german cupboard close trading relations between the value of antique buffet Spanish and the william and mary bureau on stand English, and the bottom of drawers slightly rounded antique dresser adaptations were often well made and attractive.
From 1580 to 1640 Portugal and her colonies in the antique mission single gateleg table Americas, Africa and the antique furniture with front right carving feet and left in different possition Far East were part of the antique drop leaf table and chairs style identification great Spanish Empire. For much of that time Portuguese furniture more or less were also lacquered with great skill
in gold, red and green.
The long association with England led to the pictures of antique gateleg game tables 1800’s great popularity of English furniture styles in Portugal. When Catherine of Braganza, Charles II’s widow, returned to Portugal in 1693 after 30 odd years in an English
environment she brought with her a shipload of furnishings, including many fine seventeenth-century chairs, tables and chests of drawers, the japanese porcelain manufacturers latter being strongly influenced by Dutch styles. Portuguese furniture of the antique chair high backed wheels early eighteenth century, the gate leg drop leaf table 18 th refore, combined English, Dutch and some Spanish tastes, rendered in a national manner (for example, silver mounts were sometimes preferred to bronze). Portuguese cabinet-makers were particularly attracted to Chinese and Gothic styles, as interpreted in England.
In the candlestick brass chippendale with snuffer middle of the bakelite furniture embellishment century, as in so many other European countries, French Rococo designs encroached upon national furniture and the antique oak turned legs sideboard cabriole leg became a prominent feature, in squat or elongated form. The
Portuguese still continued to carve wood, and executed some very fine work, as can be seen in the wooden bedside stools museums of Lisbon and Oporto.
