Gustavian Painted Bookcase
I recently came across an ad for a furniture company based in High Point, North Carolina called Modern History. I am a big proponent of classic furniture styles, whether they be antique or good quality reproductions. I was curious about the line so I went over to their website and took a look around. I fell in love with some of their pieces.
Inlaid half-moon console
This line is a wonderful collection of reproductions with a modern, updated feel.
Leather-wrapped Server
I can see all the pieces in the collection looking fabulous being mixed with other more clean-lined upholstered furniture and modern art.
Japanned half-round cabinet
Many of the case goods in the line are chinoiserie-inspired painted pieces. The finishes are beautiful.
Painted Gustavian Chest
A problem with many companies who manufacture reproduction type lines is the fact that their entire lines are often a boring parade of brown-stained pieces. Modern History, on the other hand, has a very nice mix of stained, inlays, painted and distressed, and japanned designs to offer.
Classic Regency-style console
You can never go wrong with a clean-lined classic look like this.
Japanned Concave Chest
This chest would be a beautiful statement piece for a foyer or entry.
Scandanavian-style painted console
This painted console would be great mixed with so many of the gray-washed pieces on the market right now.
Painted Gustavian-style concave bedside table
This liitle bedside table would be at home in so many different styles of rooms.
Modern History is definitely on my favorites list now.
