520			_a"Furniture of the Olden Time" by Frances Clary Morse is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the evolution of furniture design and craftsmanship in early America, particularly focusing on the colonial period through the 18th century. It delves into various types of furniture, including chests, cupboards, and bedsteads, while also examining the materials used and the craftsmen who created these pieces. The opening of the work introduces the typology of furniture during the American colonial era, illustrating how furniture transitioned from English imports to locally crafted items. Morse highlights the early usage of basic forms such as benches and chests, detailing the incorporation of drawer designs over time and the influence of Dutch and English styles. Using examples from historical inventories and anecdotes, the author paints a vivid picture of the significance of furniture in domestic life and the craftsmanship behind its evolution, setting the stage for the detailed examination to follow.
