Encouraged by royal and imperial regimes, exhibited at the great international fairs, and collected by international aristocrats, bankers and newly wealthy industrialists, Paris furniture by the second half of the century had once again become synonymous with luxury and exquisite craftsmanship.0Furniture makers drew their inspiration from a vast array of historical periods and cultural sources to create new and exciting designs that both appealed to the eclectic tastes of the nineteenth-century amateur and yet suited the demands for comfort and convenience of the luxury consumer. Building on the generations of skills and techniques that had characterised French furniture during the years of the Ancien Regime, contemporary makers exploited technological advances and new materials to produce some of the most creative and inventive pieces ever made, often surpassing the quality achieved by previous generations. 650 0 $a Furniture $z Paris $z Paris $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Cabinetmakers $z Paris. $z Paris. 650 0 $a Furniture designers $z France. 650 0 $a Furniture design $z France $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Furniture $z France $v Pictorial works. 650 7 $a Cabinetmakers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00843562 650 7 $a Furniture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00936488 650 7 $a Furniture design. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00936534 650 7 $a Furniture designers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00936539 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 651 7 $a France $z Paris. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205283 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Pictorial works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423874 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191122013455.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7E66C2E6462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
