Hand-Painted Furniture History
With the Colonies' freedom from England through the signing of the Declaration of Independence, paintings often displayed patriotic themes and became a singular expression of America's feedom. Through the industrial revolution in the mid 1800's and the advent of mass-produced items, this art form lost some of its luster, but found a renewal in the Arts and Craft movement of the 20th century when decorative painting on furniture and accessories again flourished.

French Style Furniture - Chaise Lounge
The chaise lounge is one of the few pieces of French furniture that can be situated in any room and not look out of place. It can be a beautiful, and extravagant, addition to a master bedroom, or is equally as happy residing in a family living room, where it provides not just extra seating but also the perfect place to relax with your feet up. Many of us have actually owned an adaptation of the chaise lounge without even knowing.
