<p>[QUOTE=&quot;the_highlander, post: 30154, member: 1592&quot;]i think but dont quote me on it, its a kind of tudor look, the victorians around that period copied tudor look in almost everything.99% of all the old black oak furniture and tudor houses about now were built in the early victorian era.</p><p><br /></p><p>the&nbsp; georgian &#039;s got there influence from ancient greece,everything done in corinthian columns and dental cornice.</p><p><br /></p><p>this made way to the regency period of fluted and curves.with was heavily french influenced mostly after louis xvi.</p><p><br /></p><p>giving way to the tudor influence of big black beams and lace and ball and claw .</p><p><br /></p><p>so to me i would say the influence there is the end of the regency and start of the tudor influence.</p><p><br /></p><p>When something came into fashion everything was built in that fashion.for instance i can date a house to 30 years just by looking at it, the same with furniture.The exactly same sttyle was built into everything.</p><p><br /></p><p>chippendale and hepplewhite were all influenced by robert adam probably the greatest british achitect of the time, everything was cubist and straight lines houses including furniture and cutlery, this given way to everything having round arches and round tables and bow fronted furniture ect.</p><p><br /></p><p>so i would say its early victorian tudor influence[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
