Victorian
Period in English furniture during the reign of Queen Victoria 1837-1901. Consists of a resurrection of many previous periods and revival imitations including: Gothic, Tudor, Elizabethan, Rococo, and Neoclassic style. This period had a focus on dark woods, heavy fabrics, embellishment, engagement with newly developed imitation materials that were facilitated by the Industrial Revolution, and a tendency towards eclecticism.
Trompe l'oeil
An artistic device that creates an optical illusion generally achieved by painting on a two-dimensional surface in perspective to suggest a three-dimensional reality that is in fact not there. The technique is documented back to the Greeks and was adopted by the French in the 17th Century coining it trompe l'oeil, or "'deceive the eye".
Marquetry
A flush pattern produced by inserting contrasting materials in a veneered surface. Rare, grained, and colored woods are usually used, but thin layers of tortoiseshell, ivory, mother-of-pearl, and metals are also seen. If the pattern is of a geometric nature, it is called parquetry.
