More About the Author
As an antiques appraiser, I began writing non-fiction to help people properly identify and value their possessions. But antiques are more than just things. Long ago I learned that, just like the clothes we wear, the things we choose to have around us tell much about us. These days I've turned to fiction with the Sterling Glass mystery series. I write these books because I love antiques, people, and stories. Like my protagonist, Sterling Glass, I live in Virginia, where, at every turn, there's a story waiting to be told.

A must have book!,
This review is from: Emyl Jenkins' Reproduction Furniture: Antiques for the Next Generation (Hardcover)
Well, here is another great book by Emyl Jenkins! She covers in detail the history of American reproduction furniture from the 1850s through the 1920s. The chapters give detail descriptions of the various periods of furniture design and instruct the reader in how to determine good and bad design. A great book that is well worth buying.
