The Renaissance era had such a deep impact that even hundreds of years later, craftsmen were still trying to emulate its accomplishments. This furniture style became popular again in 19th century France. The antique Renaissance style furniture that we sell today is from this Revival period, dating to the late 19th and early 20th-century.

This is the same era as the Victorian age, in Great Britain, which shared a lot of the same looks, values, and art. If you have a Victorian Renovation home, you can happily decorate with Renaissance Revival furniture! From sideboards to marriage chests and all sorts of other great furniture, this style is one of our favorites.

Similar Styles to Renaissance

This style is so lovely, it has numerous sister-styles across the furniture market! All of these styles are considered Neoclassical. We found a really cool guide on Neoclassical styles that you can check out here.

Henry II

While Henry II only ruled France for a brief twelve years (1547–1559), the Henry II style of antique furniture had a significant impact for much longer. Five French monarchs during the course of their reigns used this significant furniture style. But the antique Henry II furniture that we currently offer dates from the Renaissance Revival era in the late 19th century, when this incredibly classic form was once again fashionable.

The Hunting style, which was influenced by the French vogue to outfit hunting lodges and chateaux with furniture carved with depictions of rural life, had an additional impact on the furniture.

This Henry II table is a perfect example of a French Renaissance furniture.

Empire

During Napoleon Bonaparte's rule over the First French Empire, which lasted from 1804 to 1814, empire furniture came into being. Napoleon, a powerful military leader and ruler, was keenly aware of the importance of the arts as instruments for propaganda. He supported the emerging Empire style because he thought it mirrored France's power and significance.

The Neoclassical design movement gave rise to the Empire style. Themes taken from ancient Rome demonstrate how these two styles are comparable to one another.

Like Renaissance furniture, Empire furniture is renowned for its imposing size and grandeur, which are supposed to be impressive. The majority of Empire-era furniture is big in size and richly decorated. These assist to enhance the sculptures' distinctive and beautiful appearance. For examples of Empire style furniture, check out our page here.

Louis XVI

The Louis XVI style replaced the beautiful curves of the Rococo style, which is also commonly called French Louis XV style, throughout the period between 1760 and 1790. King Louis-Auguste's reign saw the emergence of this new fashion. It utilized straight lines and had classically influenced themes, much like its Baroque forebear.

The Louis XVI design was less substantial than the Louis XIV design, even if it developed into a more refined form of the Louis XV style. It marks the end of French baroque architecture and the start of French neoclassicism. We have many Louis XVI and other French pieces on our page here.

More time is spent in the bedroom than any room in the home. The mood of the room sets the tone of your day when you wake up, and lets you unwind as you go to sleep. With that in mind, it's important to go all-out on this space's decor! Purchasing an antique bed is an investment to say the least.

Quality bedroom furniture can cost a pretty penny, especially when it comes to the centerpiece: a bed. To avoid the buyer's remorse that can come with such a large purchase, it's important to know what to look for. Fortunately, by the end of this guide, you'll be much better prepared to pick your next favorite piece of bedroom furniture.

 

1.How to Make Sure Your Antique Bed is Actually Antique

Unfortunately, you can't believe everything you read on the internet. The internet is plagued with bad information and false advertising. Many "antique style" beds are incorrectly listed as antique furniture.

Not that imitations can't be lovely additions to your home, but you want the real thing! There are a few ways you can make sure that your potential bed is an actual antique, and not a fake.

Look for Imperfections

Part of the appeal of antique furniture is that it was made by hand, and not in a factory. The human element behind beautiful craftsmanship is part of the charm. After all, furniture is an art. Whether or not a piece has these human touches can tell you about its history.

Modern and factory made furniture will have perfectly straight edges and virtually no blemishes. We would expect nothing less from a piece made by a robot!

Look for slight curves in the solid wood. If there is variation/inconsistency in the joints of the the furniture, chances are it was made by hand! We always recommend taking a look in person before ordering online, if possible.

A piece that is perfectly symmetrical is also likely to be more recent. Humans are not perfect creatures! Slight asymmetry is generally a dead giveaway that a piece of furniture was crafted by hand.

Varied Wood is Good

It is highly, highly unusual for an antique bed, or any piece of antique furniture for that matter, to be made out of solely one type of wood. Even if a majority of an antique piece is crafted from a solid wood such as mahogany, chances are some joint or support will be crafted from a different type. If you notice that there are multiple woods used, that's a good indicator that you're looking at a genuine antique.

 

Check the Label

Another good way to determine a piece's age is by a maker's mark. Generally speaking, antique craftsmen would carve some form of signature or number into the wood. Usually, these carvings or stamps are fairly discrete.

Check on the underside or lower edge of the furniture in question. It's also important to remember that these can also be faked, so it's a good idea to check for signs of aging.

 

2.You Might Need a Custom Mattress

This may come as a surprise, but the standardization of bed sizes is a relatively new development in home decor. Back in the old days, there were no king beds, queen beds, or double beds- there were just beds of all different shapes and sizes. The sizes we're familiar with today originated in the mid-late 20th century.

This makes finding the right mattress more of a challenge, but not an insurmountable one. There are many companies that can provide you with a custom fitted mattress that will suit your specific needs.

 

3.Match Your Styles

It seems intuitive to match your furniture styles. However, this doesn't mean that every piece of furniture in your bedroom has to be the exact same style in order to provide a cohesive look. This doesn't mean you should randomly try to mix Victorian with Mid-Century Modern furniture, of course. But if you have some Gothic pieces in your bedroom set, you can probably get away with a Chippendale centerpiece, as the 2 are stylistically similar.

You may also need a custom headboard. To learn more about these, you can check out our post about them here!

It's also important to make sure your antique bed's finish matches with the color scheme of the room. Once again, this doesn't need to be a perfect match right down to the color code, but it should at least complement the room's layout.

It's also worth noting that not every piece of furniture in your scheme has to be antique in order to create a cohesive look. There are a wide variety of antique style (not antique) pieces that can blend well with older decor.

4.Take Your Time When Looking for an Antique Bed!

As a final piece of general advice, it's important to remember that the process of buying an antique bed is just that - a process. It's the type of decision that can and should take hours of careful consideration. Whether you're in the market for an antique queen bed frame or a vintage poster bed, patience is a virtue.

Investments of this size deserve caution and research. Take the steps needed to make sure that the bed in question is an actual antique. Look into custom mattresses so that you aren't blindsided by the lack of standardized sizes. Make sure to take into account how one style blends with another.

Remember, not every piece has to be of the exact same style, but it should be pretty close for best results.

Hopefully, with these tips in mind, you'll be on your way to creating the perfect bedroom!

The ancient French chest of drawers, which comes from the 1930s and is far too beautiful to be stashed away in a bedroom, will look fantastic in a living room or corridor.

Rococo Design: Ornate and Extravagant

Ornate brass accents adorn the tops of the curved cabriole legs at the front of the chest. The little figures on the drawer handles, as well as the brass head on the chest apron, show excellent details. With a sensuous and luxurious appeal that would improve any design, this is the epitome of Rococo extravagance. The traditional Rococo French chest of drawers offers both efficient storage and beautiful good aesthetics, making it an excellent choice for any traditional French design scheme.


Curves, curves, curves!

On walls, ceilings, and moldings, the Rococo style included elaborate interlacings of curves and countercurves based on the fundamental shapes of the "C" and "S," as well as shell patterns and other natural shapes. Asymmetrical design was the rule. Light pastels, ivory white, and gold were the primary hues, and Rococo decorators commonly used mirrors to emphasize the feeling of open space. It is distinguished by its lightness, grace, and enthusiastic use of curved natural shapes in decorating. Rococo is derived from the French word rocaille, which refers to shell-covered rockwork used to decorate artificial grottoes. To see more furniture with good curves, check out our post here!

A tall, wooden Hunting style buffet

Imagine this exquisite antique French Hunting style buffet in your library, home office, corridor, or living room, housing your collection of books while also serving as a lovely ornamental focal point. The antique Renaissance Hunting style buffet/bookcase comes from approximately 1880 and is a genuine import from France. It's beautifully carved and has a lot of interesting features. The lower doors feature a fox on one side and a hunting hound on the other, while the bookcase is constructed of oak with a lovely weathered patina. To see a video of this piece, check out our youtube channel here!

The Hunting Style

This is typical of the classic Hunting style, which dates back to King Francis I of France, who chose to furnish his royal hunting lodges with furnishings that emphasized the hunt's rural setting. The two creatures are sculpted with extraordinary lifelike detail. Because the fur on the dog and the fox appears to wave with the movement of the animals, the carver must have seen a lot of dogs sniffing for the scent! Other carvings include leafy greenery and a shield. Chicken wire is used on the upper two doors to give them a rustic hunting aspect. This lovely 1880 antique French Renaissance Hunting style bookcase has enough storage in the main and lower cabinets, as well as two drawers.

Hunting Buffets are always a great choice!

A dog sitting next to a secretary desk

Our customer, Raymond, is thrilled with his new secretary desk! This fantastic new desk and bookshelf, inspired by Old World European furniture designs, will look fantastic in your home. The piece, which stands nearly 8 feet tall and is capped with a swirling scroll pediment, is crafted with a stunning mahogany finish. Individual beveled glass panes adorn the bookcase over the desk in an attractive pattern. The secretary desk unfolds to show a leather writing surface, as well as numerous drawers and pigeonholes, as well as a middle cabinet, to keep your writing utensils and documents organized.

The new secretary desk and bookcase has a height of 92 inches, a width of 38 inches, and a depth of 20 inches.

What is a Secretary Desk?

Despite its name, a secretary desk is more commonly found in homes than in businesses. The secretary desk's fundamental design consists of a set of drawers topped by a fold-out desk, with a set of shelves or a hutch sitting on top. The basic design is fairly old; preserved antique examples from the 1500s and maybe earlier imply that the desk was commonly used at the period. Many people keep a secretary desk at home to use as a small workplace or a family organizing area. Modern offices tend to use a different styled desk design with more room to spread out and slightly less private storage, but many people keep a secretary desk at home to use as a small workplace or as a family organizing area.

Where Should I Put My Secretary Desk?

They can be a nice addition to your living room, or in your workspace as a fixture in your home office. This piece of furniture also has applications in the entryway or dining room. There are many iterations of this solid wood writing desk. There are older, Chippendale versions that bring a classic appeal to your home decor.
