<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James Conrad, post: 505477, member: 5066&quot;]William &amp; Mary is a very interesting period, furniture wise. It left behind the boxy, chunky world of &quot;joined&quot; furniture built by joiners and entered the new age of cabinetmakers.</p><p>William was Dutch and was basically invited to ascend the English throne as the brits were fussing about a bunch of stuff, religion primarily i think. He brought many new ideas from Holland, Netherlands &amp; this style furniture is unique in many ways.</p><p>Queen Anne followed a short time later &amp; the furniture world never looked back, joiners were done building furniture after many centuries and the age of cabinetmakers began.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
