Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a humorous and insightful exploration of the author's journey into the world of antique furniture collecting. It starts with a brief family history and some encouragement from his aunt, and the author soon finds himself caught between the delight of discovery and the temptation to buy the first thing he sees. He shares his experiences with the "Old Curiosity Shop" man and the "White-haired man," learning the ins and outs of bargaining and restoration along the way. The book explores the evolution of furniture, from Dutch chests to dressing tables and wingback chairs, and how furniture reflects broader cultural and historical trends. It also discusses the rise of the "old furniture craze" and its impact on the way people furnish their homes and think about their own history. Ultimately, the book is a celebration of the beauty and craftsmanship of antique furniture, and an encouragement to readers to appreciate the history and stories held within each piece. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
