British Furniture, 1880-1915

Description

The field of furniture history is remarkable for its open and ready sharing of information and advice. This stems from the generous approach of some of the subject's pioneers, notably Edward Joy, and is fostered by the vision and scholarship of Peter Thornton and his gifted team in the Department of Furniture and Woodwork at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
