520 1 $a"Connecticut Valley Furniture showcases the design and exceptional craftsmanship produced in the region in the decades before and after the American Revolution. This trove of early Americana is authoritatively discussed and depicted in nearly 200 catalog entries with 450 photographs and line drawings. Over half of the illustrations feature unpublished or little-known examples, in addition to masterpieces from the Connecticut Historical Society Museum and other major collections." "Connecticut Valley Furniture is destined to become an essential reference in American furniture study. Specific design and construction criteria enable readers to identify work according to style centers, towns, shop traditions, and individual cabinetmakers. Insightful essays by leading scholars consider topics ranging from the origins of case furniture forms to the life and reputation of Eliphalet Chapin, Connecticut's best known eighteenth-century cabinetmaker. Period maps, glossary, and cabinetmaker biographies complete the contents, making this the most extensive treatment of Connecticut valley furniture ever assembled."--BOOK JACKET.
