    The furniture historians rule of thumb in style classification is to use the latest period's stylistic feature to date the piece. Fitzgeralds work is excellent in that he uses strictly academic terminology, not often misused or misinterpreted commercial terms.

    I did order a copy of the book you suggested, hopefully I'll make sense of it all. Lol
