Insight into Classic Furniture Classic or traditional furniture follows a timeless design with universal appeal. It is often ageless and evokes a sense of tradition and history. One of the prime characteristics of classic furniture is often the size. In the past, homes were spacious and accommodating and furniture was often on the large side. Another characteristic element in classic furniture is the colour scheme. Most classic items embraced a neutral palette of darker shades including wood in walnuts, mahogany, chocolate, charcoal and black. Classic furniture is also built to last. Often made from solid wood, classic items stand the test of time. Some of the more common classic styles include French Provincial, Louis XV, Georgian and Victorian.

Insight into Modern Furniture Modern or contemporary furniture often refers to furniture that was created after the 19th century. Unlike classic furniture, modern pieces tend to be more compact and on the smaller side, allowing homeowners to make the most of smaller spaces. Modern furniture is also about the latest trends and innovations, often pushing the limits of design with textures, form, colours and materials. You will often find a mix of all of these elements and styles incorporated into modern furniture designs. A combination of classic structure with a modern twist, Peter J.A Stuart bring us a modern furniture collection with a standout voice and point of view—seamlessly blending classic design and silhouettes with all that we adore!   Contact: Peter JA Stuart
