Cast-Iron Furniture by Georg Himmelheber, ISBN 0856674621
Iron seemed to be suitable for everything - from railway lines to steam kettles, jewellery and furniture. Beds, chairs, tables, benches and small items of furniture made of cast-iron, the most modern and versatile material of its time, were available due to its durability and low price.
The art-historical development of cast-iron furniture has long been neglected and this book offers a systematic illustrated record of the many diverse forms featuring two major names: Karl Friedrich Schinkel of Germany and Christopher Dresser of the United Kingdom.
With over 460 types of iron furniture presented among 160 pages of illustrations, Georg Himmelheber provides furniture experts and dealers, designers and collectors with the first complete and international survey of this very popular furniture. This book is also an important contribution to the cultural history of the 19th century.

C. F. A. Voysey by Wendy Hitchmough, ISBN 0714837121
From the 1890s until the outbreak of the First World War, C F A Voysey was one of the most successful and renowned British architects. His elegant, white-rendered houses with stone window dressings and sweeping green-slate roofs combined clarity with a sensual appreciation of natural materials. A designer of all things domestic, as well as an architect, he was often involved in every aspect of a house's interior from wallpaper, curtains and furniture to fire grates. Moreover, the fluid curves of his decorative designs and the elongated simplicity of his furniture prove him to be a vital historical link between the Arts and Crafts and the Modern movements.
As the first definitive account of Voysey's architectural career, this book combines contemporary sources -- photographs, quotations, original wallpaper designs and watercolour perspectives -- with specially commissioned photography of his houses.
