<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 390321, member: 37"]You kind of have Queen Anne meets Chippendale, with a little Jacobean thrown in. Edwardian is not a style but a time period. When talking furniture, it is a decidedly British term, though Americans have adopted it some. It generally means early 20th century furniture produced prior to WWI. The furniture made during this time period was generally more restrained than that of the Victorian era and there was a move back to historical styles but often coordinated together to create new forms. Here in America, this started about the same time but really went crazy post-WWI. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwardian_era" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwardian_era" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwardian_era</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
