Once you know what details to look for, furniture styles get SO much easier to recognize. 👀
We put together a quick cheat sheet for some of the styles we run into most often while furniture hunting — MCM, French Provincial, Art Deco, Traditional, Farmhouse/Country, and Campaign.
Knowing the style isn’t just fun trivia, either. It can help you figure out what might be worth grabbing, which original details are worth preserving, when that wood grain deserves to stay, and what direction to take a flip.
Of course, furniture loves to break the rules. 😂 Styles overlap, manufacturers borrowed from each other, and plenty of pieces don’t fit perfectly into one category.
So learn the clues, then look at the whole piece. 🔎
