Queen Anne style

The reign of Queen Anne inspired both a style and a period of furniture easily recognized by the cabriole leg and undulating lines. Improved cabinetry techniques made stretchers unnecessary. Catering to comfort, furniture makers of the period introduced upholstery in the overstuffed manner, and chair backs with a single curved splat, fiddle- or vase-shaped and spooned to fit the back. Some innovations were stimulated by such social amenities as tea drinking, responsible for the small tea table, and the craze for collecting china, which brought into being the glass-doored closet. Others, equally tailored to the times, were highboys, the forerunners of vertical storage pieces, Windsor and banister back chairs. In comfort, scale and simplicity, Queen Anne furniture is admirably capable of combining with modern furniture.

Distinguishing features. Simplicity of line, absence of flamboyant decoration. Walnut was the favorite surface, often lacquered or gilded. Carving took the form of the scallop shell, acanthus leaf, broken and C- curve.
