Venice, horn and Antler furniture from Germany and the American West,
Grotesque and Mythological furniture, Belle Epoque furniture, Black Forest
furniture from Switzerland, and other examples of root, twig, bentwood,
iron, bamboo and wicker furniture, all of which you stare at and say, “I’m
supposed to sit on that??”.

white illustrations, dust jacket.
