A useful bibliography on 21 specific aspects of decorative arts and household furnishings.
Each section contains an essay that outlines the development of scholarship in the field and points toward new directions for research and is followed by annotated entries on the most significant works. Three chapters present the basic reference tools and surveys of art and architecture. These are followed by a series of chapters devoted to types of objects (furniture, metals. ceramics and glass, textiles, and timepieces), thematic chapters that focus on function, and topical chapters that address craftsmen and craft movements. An author/title index concludes the book.
