Format:Paperback
This is a useful fact-filled handbook perfect for anyone who collects Georgian antiques or who is looking to furnish and decorate a house in authentic Georgian style. Small enough to fit in a handbag or pocket but chunky enough to offer true insight into the style and trends of the Georgian period, it's ideal for any serious shopping trip.

I am currently building and decorating a Georgian dolls house and want it to be as authentic as possible. This book is excellent for this purpose as it has lots of photographs and is good value for money. I would recommend it to anyone for research into the Georgian period.
