Antiques:

The Bulfinch Anatomy of Antique Furniture

More than 200 pieces of antique furniture are displayed in lavish color photographs along with detailed information about how to assess the quality of different pieces. Do you want to know what a splat is? How about a stretcher? How can you tell the difference between solid walnut and good veneer? What about dating a piece? All of these questions are answered in this large format book.


The Encyclopedia of Furniture

This is the new edition of the famous Encyclopedia of Furniture which sold over 225,000 copies. This book lists virtually every name and term relevant to antique furniture and provides an explanation and/or description as well as a black and white photograph or illustration.

Interior Design:

Paris Interiors by Lisa Lovatt-Smith

This book contains amazing photos of the interiors of the Paris homes of celebrities and famous designers. Thankfully, the author chose the homes of celebrities that were decorated by top interior designers. As a result, this book contains one of the best collections of interior design photos that we've seen. The styles of the interiors cover a broad range from ornate to minimalist, with the only central theme being excellence.


Classic Georgian Style by Henrietta Spencer-Churchill & Andreas Von Einsiedel

A beautiful large format book showing English interiors in the Georgian style.


Creative Interior Design - A Complete Guide to Designing & Decorating Your Home

This book not only provides pictures of decorating ideas, but it also gives you "how to" information. Step by step, it shows you how to create the designs that it depicts. Although this book does not have the eclectic selection of interior photos that Paris Interiors has, it is a more practical book for those who want to immediately enhance the look of their homes.
