Thomas Sheraton style furniture

Thomas Sheraton worked in Stockton-on-Tees with a local cabinet maker until he moved to London in 1790. There he was teaching perspective, architecture, and cabinet design for craftsmen.
Sheraton continued to use mahogany but preferred satinwood, rosewood and tulipwood whilst incorporating painted motifs. Brass hardware and round glass knobs were used in his furniture. He had a passion for mechanical parts.
He published several books on the techniques of cabinet and chair making widely influential over a large part of the country.
