Hunter, all right reserved Medieval Furniture Part I - Furniture Use and Design Introduction This lecture will consider the design, construction, and decoration of furniture in Western th th a Europe from about the 11 through the 16 century. During this period there were four main groups of people: royalty, nobility, clergy, and peasants. Each group had different abilities to acquire furniture. The royalty had essentially unlimited wealth that allowed them to furnish their th palaces on a grand, unparalleled scale. The nobility, before the 14 century, while wealthy, led a peripatetic life and supported groups of soldiers that consumed most of their disposable income. What money was left was insufficient to furnish the several manor houses in which they rotated residence. In the 14th century the standing armies and the peripatetic lifestyle were no longer necessary. Consequently, holdings were consolidated, the nobility settled down, and, since money was available, they were able to furnish a preferred manor house very comfortably. The establishment of the monasteries had a similar effect for the clergy as consolidation of holdings did for the nobility although it happened about 100 years earlier. The simple existence and dawn to dusk labor of the peasants did not change much throughout this period; neither did their housing and furnishings which were of a very simple nature. Due mainly to the small number of remaining examples of medieval furniture, this rather long period of time can be considered as a whole since there is insufficient evidence to base a more detailed discussion of period variations in furniture styles.b Similarly, little can be said about regional or nationalistic variations. There is, however, one general temporal division that can be made between the furniture from the early period, before about 1300, and the later period, after about 1300. This division is one of quantity and only later, towards, the end of the 15th century, one of quality. By the 14th century, coincident with the consolidation of manorial holdings, the private room, or solar, was gaining popularity and with it there was an increase in the amount of furniture in a house. In particular, there was an increase in the number of tables, chairs, cupboards, etc. The scanty remains of early medieval furniture are partially demonstrated by the rarity of surviving examples. There are very few pieces which can be dated before 1200 with certainty and not many more which can be dated prior to 1300. This may be due to destruction of earlier pieces as old-fashioned or worn out. While partially true, implying that the surviving pieces are a minute fraction of the pieces that once existed, there are numerous surviving examples of woodwork in churches from these periods. The number of surviving examples suddenly increases as the end of the 14th century coincident with the consolidation of manorial holdings, reductions in feudal responsibilities, a less peripatetic life, and increase in the size

  • The Arts of Early Twentieth Century Dining Rooms: Arts and Crafts
    THE ARTS OF EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY DINING ROOMS: ARTS AND CRAFTS, ART NOUVEAU, AND ART DECO by SUE-ANNA ELIZA DOWDY (Under the Direction of John C. Waters) ABSTRACT Within the preservation community, little is done to preserve the interiors of historic buildings. While many individuals are concerned with preserving our historic resources, they fail to look beyond the obvious—the exteriors of buildings. If efforts are not made to preserve interiors as well as exteriors, then many important resources will be lost. This thesis serves as a catalog of how to recreate and preserve an historic dining room of the early twentieth century in the Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco styles.

The Egyptian civilization is thought to have been begun in about 3150 BC until 31 BC. For the ancient Greek civilization, it started in the period of Minoan (ca. 3200 BC) up to the ending of the Hellenistic era. There are various parallels and dissimilarities between both civilizations. They co-existed during a certain timeframe (from ca. 2000 to ca. 146 BC); however, they were in two different geographic areas. Both civilizations were massive traders, subsequently, they deeply influenced the regional civilizations which have developed in that region. Various scientific and technological principles were established by both civilizations through their long histories. Water management was one of these major technologies. Accordingly, they have significantly influenced the ancient world’s hydro-technologies.

  • Ancient Greek Furniture: Source of Inspiration for the Designers and Manufacturers of Modern Times
    Proceedings of the XXVI th International Conference Research for Furniture Industry Ancient greek furniture: source of inspiration for the designers and manufacturers of modern times Vasiliki KAMPERIDOU, Vasileios VASILEIOU Faculty of Forestry and Natural Environment, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Abstract: Although the Greeks borrowed the original design of their furniture during the Classical era from the culture of Egyptians and other surrounding peoples, the furniture styles were transformed by Greeks and these Greek furniture styles influenced and continue to influence furniture styles into the modern centuries. The Greek furniture tended to be round, curved, of softer style, more ornamental, comfortable, supportive to the body, symmetrical and functional than the styles of Egyptian furniture. The ancient history of furniture came to us principally from the art records left to us by the earlier society and specifically, the knowledge came from numerous configurations that were found on Greek vases, sculptures, inscriptions, tombstones, coins, reliefs in the Parthenon, paintings in pottery, relief curvings and other illustrated examples depicted in Greek art. In this study the main and most popular forms and styles of ancient Greek furniture of Classical and Hellenistic era, that have been recorded, such as stools (Bathron, Diphros Okladias, Thronos, footstools), tables, kline (a banquet couch), chairs (klismos), chests etc. are presented and analyzed. Valuable information is also recorded about their construction, the materials and types of connection used in furniture construction, as well as, the tools and machinery being used by the craftsmen. Principal goal of this study is to examine the significance of these unique pieces of furniture for the daily life of that times, the evolution of the architecture and designs of ancient Greek furniture through the ages, the inspiration of the modern designers and manufacturers by them and the reappearance of ancient Greek forms and designs in modern artefacts.

  • Mortise and Tenon Woodworking Joints
    Mortise and tenon woodworking joints Continue Diagram of a mortise (left) and articulated tenon tusked through tenons used in a French barn. 1) Through tenon and 2) mortise as a shoulder jointMortise (occasionally mortice) and tenon joint connects two pieces of wood or material. Joiners from all over the world have been using it for thousands of years to join pieces of wood, especially when adjacent pieces connect at right angles. The mortise and tenon joints are strong and stable joints that can be used in many projects. The joint mortise and tenon is considered one of the strongest joints next to the joint. [citation required] They provide a strong result and connect by gluing or locking in place. Mortise and tenon joint also give an attractive lookout. A disadvantage to this joint is the difficulty in doing so due to the precise and tight cutting required. In its most basic form, a mortise and tenon joint is simple and strong. There are many variations of this type of articulation, but the basic mortise and tenon have two components: the mortise hole, and the tenon tongue. The tenon, formed at the end of a member commonly referred to as a rail, fits into a square or rectangular hole cut into the other corresponding member. The tenon is cut to fit exactly in the mortise hole. Usually have shoulders that sit when the joint fully enters the mortise hole. The joint can be glued, fastened or fastened to lock it in place. This joint is also used with other materials. For example, it is traditionally used by masons and blacksmiths.

  • Feast and Daily Life in the Middle Ages, © Christian Rohr 2002
    Feast and Daily Life in the Middle Ages, © Christian Rohr 2002 Feast and Daily Life in the Middle Ages Lecture at Novosibirsk State University, Oct. 22nd – Oct. 25th, 2002 Christian ROHR, University of Salzburg, Austria, [email protected] The text of this lecture can be downloaded under the following URL: http://www.sbg.ac.at/ges/people/rohr/nsk2002.htm. Introduction Any culture has its feasts. They constitute something like fixed or occasional milestones, dividing the circle of a year and of life in singular sections. The harder and more monotonous this daily life is, the more these feasts will be an occasion to escape this daily life for at least some hours. Feasts always made daily life tolerable or let it forget for a while. During the Middle Ages and Renaissance time feasts have been celebrated for very different occasions: on the celebration day of a saint, for a wedding or a funeral, during the adventus, the arrival of a king or within a chivalrous or also bourgeois tournament. Nevertheless, a feast did not only serve to flee daily life or to point out a special occasion, but it was also established for representation. A main part of communication was held without any words, but through different signs. It always played a major role, and it also plays today, which dresses you wear for which guest, which dishes you will serve or which place you choose for a feast. Most of the societies of the beginning 3rd millennium have lost a bit the sense for the meaning of feasts.
