Scottish Furniture (inbunden, eng)

Scottish Furniture offers a narrative account of furniture-making in Scotland, from the sixteenth century to the twentieth century. Written to scholarly standards, it disseminates a wealth of new research and specialist knowledge to a wide audience.The book is written primarily for readers with an existing knowledge of, and passion for, furniture history.

It offers a broad-ranging perspective and covers an unusually long period. In addition to identifying key makers and diagnostic features, the text discusses the nature of national characteristics in material culture through time and across a range of contrasting socio-economic settings, as well as the interaction between design and making in material culture.It is thus of interest to a secondary set of academic readers, unfamiliar with furniture yet engaged with Scottish cultural history.
