There’s always some terms that you pick up along the way
when you either collect a certain area or are a dealer. Furniture is the same way, and here’s some
great vocabulary words that I heard along the way:
Attached Back
Pillow: This is a pillow
treatment that can’t be taken off the upholstered piece.
Butler's Table: This is an oval wooden tray on
legs whose four sides are hinged to fold out flat when it is set down.
Case Piece: A piece of furniture like this provides
interior space for storage. It could be something
like clothing or bedding.
Commode: Today, this means something
completely different. It used to be a low
chest that had either drawers or doors (some
sort of cabinet on legs) which usually stands against a wall.
Nest-of-Tables: These are small tables that
are used every once in a while and are graduated in size so that they slide
beneath one another.
