Peter at London Road Retro

Large or small, ornate or rustic? You decide...

I just love large ornate mirrors especially when they have beveled edge glass.

But do they have to be BIG ??




The bigger the better some say, (providing you've got the room that can cope with such a large scale ornament).












I think there's lots to be said for a Small item...

Victorian Loo Table c1860-1880

Victorian Mahogany folding Loo table. 

A Loo table is a table model from the 18th & 19th centuries, originally designed for the card game loo, (a game also known as Lanterloo)





This typical loo table has an oval top & hinged mechanism fitted to an ornate pedestal base, enabling the table to be easily stored when not in use. How practical were the Victorians?

So practical...

Elegant...

Victorian practicality also included castors for easy movement with many featuring an ornate carved and turned pedestal base.

Hinged mechanism for easy storage

This Loo Table is thought to be from 1880

The Parlour chair

A Mahogany 'Balloon Back' Parlour Chair

The Victorian Parlour showcased the homeowner’s possessions and so, was a place where guests were entertained.

Victorian Mahogany Parlour Chairs

Spending on elegance and ornamentation was 'de-rigueur' of the day during Queen Victoria's reign, (1837-1901).

Interiors were noted for their orderliness with houses divided into rooms - with public and private spaces clearly divided.

The Parlour in Victorian times was the most important room in the house - Reflecting the interests and aspirations of its owners...!

The word Parlour can be traced back to the 16th Century.

Sideboard or Buffet ...?

A contemporary sideboard design displaying Victorian elegance

The Victorian era saw the increased spending on elegance and ornamentation - all this generated by the Industrial revolution during Queen Victoria's reign, (1837-1901).

Interiors were noted for their orderliness with houses divided into rooms - with public and private spaces clearly divided.

None more so than the dining room which was the second-most important room in the house. This room showcased the often elaborate and ornate Sideboard or buffet - these being most often the focal point of the Dining room.

Plates and crockery Storage?

Cutlery storage?

The sideboard had the practical function of serving food as well as providing storage.

Typically, at waist height, consisting of cabinets and cupboards and one or more draws.



 This simple design has carried through to today with separate units being produced as one single item, housing shelved side and central under storage and top drawer. (As above).

(For the None purists out there, the words Sideboard and buffet are much the same thing.

However, if the item has short legs or a base that sits directly on the floor with no legs, then it's a Sideboard.    If it has longer legs then it's more likely to be called a Buffet).

Even more storage...!

Hepplewhite Style...

Georgian style (carved) Shield-back  Parlour Chair Design

George Hepplewhite chairs in particular were of a shield shaped back with Hepplewhite chair designs also featuring straight legs and elegantly carved and shortened armrests. These clearly differentiating His designs from his two more traditional contemporaries.

Hepplewhite gave his name to a style that is characterised by light, elegantly and ornately designed pieces. No Hepplewhite furniture is known to exist today.

Hepplewhite shield back designs were all without carvings and received ornamentation from either paint or inlay details used on the chair.

Hepplewhite was considered one of the big three designers and furniture makers at the time, along with Thomas' Chippendale and Sheraton and Hepplewhite designs have influenced ever since..

Georgian Splat back Chair.

Traditional designs of the time by Messrs Chippendale and Sheraton were of a more traditional 'Splat' back design.

All chairs featured were supplied by London Road Retro, UK.

Edwardian Simplicity...

Edwardian simplicity

The dawning of the Edwardian era brought with it a change to a more simplistic, practical design. At the same time there was a lot more social travel and exploration which introduced yet more exotic designs from China and India.

Edwardian Splendour

A Drop Arm Sofa showcasing the change to more simplistic, practical designs of the Edwardian Era

 The Art Nouveau style continued to be popular, with Mackintosh leading the way in building and furniture style.

Typical features from this era included the egg and dart pattern seen on many ceilings as part of the coving.
