Description
Part of the appeal of vernacular furniture - a relatively recent field of serious study - is that to understand it we must look closely at social history, and engage with lifestyles that range from self-sufficient to sophisticated. If not often high art, vernacular furniture proves beyond question that limited resources, even poverty, need not exclude aesthetic qualities, nor need the functional imperative exclude beauty and charm.
