The firm's production included furniture and chimneys as well as table decorations, acquired not only by German Royal patrons and noble houses but also delivered to Holland and as far as Constantinople. As members of the Academy of Arts, Werner & Mieth exhibited in the annual exhibitions from 1786. Their factory was established before 1792 on the Leipziger Straße in Berlin, opposite the Porzellanmanufaktur. However, an official comparison between the KPM porcelain bronze mounts and those of Werner & Mieth to the Royal Collegium of Manufactory and Commerce and the Academie of Arts resulted in the conclusion that the items supplied by Werner and Mieth [... greatly surpassed the works of the others, in the beauty of their design concepts, their modeliChest c 1780-1830 Velarde.

This exquisite table, a nearly pure rendition of French Consulate (1799-1804) design, was made in New York by one of the most important of these immigrant craftsmen, Charles-Honoré Lannuier. Trained as a cabinetmaker in Paris in the tumultuous aftermath of the French Revolution, Lannuier came to New York City in 1803 and distinguished himself as the city's resident ébéniste de Paris until his untimely death at the age of forty in 1819..

When furnished with a small armrest or low table, it was convenient for lounging, reading books, or drinking tea. Made of massive pieces of timber, this rare cabriole (s-shaped) leg daybed exemplifies the restrained grandeur and robust form that exemplified late Ming aristocratic taste. The surrounding curvilinear aprons are decorated in carved relief with ling-chih/ (fungus)-like cloud motifs, a popular emblem of longevity. The legs are carved with a ju-i (wish-granting) cloud lappet design on each shoulder and terminate with a scrolled foot form from which a leaf sprouts in relief. It is the only huang-hua-li daybed known to be decorated with these specific auspicious motifs.Jean-Jacques Paffrat. Convenient. Oak, mahogany, around 1785. Paris, Carnavalet museum.

Unknown maker, FrenchConsole Table 1730-1740 France. The symmetric design of this table, which was meant to be attached to a wall, places it in the early phase of the Rococo style known as RÈgence, or French Regency. Named for Philippe II, duc díOrlÈans, who served as regent to Louis XV for eight years, the style marked a transition from courtly Baroque formality and grandeur to a more sophisticated, frivolous, and intimate sensibility. By the time Louis XV took power, however, the style had evolved into the full-blown asymmetry of the Rococo.. Wood, oak, gesso, and gilding . François RoumierSlab or Side Table 1730-1740 England.

This drawing-room cabinet was conceived by Bruce James Talbert, a prolific designer in Victorian Britain who drew inspiration from such widely divergent sources as Gothic architecture and Japanese art. Like many of his colleagues in the second half of the 19th century, Talbert often wrestled with how to foster fine design and craftsmanship in the face of increasing industrialization and mechanization. He simplified and popularized the Gothic style first advocated by Augustus Pugin earlier in the century, and offered his designs to furniture manufacturers such as Gillow and Company of Lancaster, who made the Art Instituteís cabinet.Talbert advocated honesty in construction and designed many pieces that combine a strongly rectilinear form with a refined sense of detail. Here, the carved Gothic elements of the perimeter of the sideboard provide the structure for delicate marquetry panels depicting abstract, geometrical designs and Japanese-inspireReclining Armchair after 1866 George Jakob Hunzinger.

He was one of many independent builders that could be found throughout New York City and other cities in the United States. Many of his surviving instruments, like this example at The Met, are decorated with ornately carved wood and gilt decorations and wood and brass inlays. The instrument sits on a stand that is similar to those of other New York makers of the time.
