Upholsterers and Interior Furnishing
in England 1530-1840
Geoffrey Beard
This richly illustrated book is a history of the upholstery trade in Britain over three hundred years. It surveys the changing styles that affected this art form, the craftsmen who made the furniture and the kings and the courtiers who purchased it, and the events - from coronations to funerals - at which upholstery played a leading role.
