European Style
The European style draws
from English and Continental influences spanning the 16th
through 19th centuries, encompassing Regency, Georgian,
Louis XIV, and others. The revival of European styling
resulted from growing middle class affluence during the
1920s, when people expressed interest in regal "old
world" furniture. The European tradition exemplifies
stately, aristocratic elegance, celebrating organic patterns
and complex wood grains.
