Let us take a typical Victorian house, a residence of a family belonging to the upper middle class. What rooms will it contain? There will be an entrance hall, of course, dining room, living room, music room and morning room, master bedroom and two or three other bedrooms, a nursery probably, besides the kitchen and a bathroom. Victorian furniture was good, solid, and lasting; chairs, chests, cupboards, and bedroom furniture served several generations, and as each succeeding young couple took discarded pieces from the old home, and later completed their furnishing in newer style, the household goods became mixed. Explore the world of antique furniture: find antique furniture pictures and information about Victorian style furniture, antique furniture, and vintage furniture. Also featuring pictures of Regency Era furniture and window treatments from the early 19th century.
