Empire

A period of design during the reign of Napoleon I. It was most prevalent between 1800 and the late 1820s. It was considered the second wave of neoclassicism and marked a return to ostentatious design, a departure from the more conservative Directoire period that directly preceded it. It was intended to idealize the majesty of the French state and Napoleonic rule. Mahogany was the most popular wood during the period, and brass ornamentation and dark marbles were in vogue. Greek, Roman, and Egyptian motifs were also widely used. The style spread throughout Europe and appeared in America in some of Duncan Phyfe's work.

Cornucopia

A cornucopia is a decorative motif that dates back to ancient Greece. The cornucopia is a symbol of fertility and abundance. The motif originated in the shape of a curved goat’s horn that is filled or overflowing with fruits, grains, and flowers. The cornucopia motif was especially popular during the Baroque and Rococo periods. The cornucopia is also referred to as a Horn Of Plenty.

Relief

Relief work is a form of molded, carved or stamped decoration raised from the surface of a piece of furniture to form a pattern

Mahogany

Mahogany is a straight grained hard wood with silky texture, ranging in color from dark brown to red. Furniture made from mahogany became popular in Britain from Mid-18th Century on, spreading throughout Europe.
