{"product_id":"american-furniture-journal-2001","title":"American Furniture 2001","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis scholarly volume explores pivotal moments in early American furniture craftsmanship. Essays examine mannerist pieces from Northern Essex County, Massachusetts, the distinguished career of David Evans, rare early New York turned chairs, the refined Lisle desk-and-bookcase from Rhode Island, and a Salem cabinetmakers' price book—a valuable primary source. Two early eighteenth-century Schränke round out the collection, alongside critical book reviews and comprehensive bibliography.
