EMPIRE
Magnificent | Aesthetic | Ornate
This style signals a gaudy magnificence and austerity of imperial Rome. This richness is reflected in the precise ebony cravings, richly veneered mahogany, and ornate gilded bronze accents and sculptures. The Empire aesthetic has symmetry in its adornment, which usually incorporates eagles, stars, chariots, winged chimaeras, laurels, and acanthus leaves. Animal paw feet, glass pulls, and gilded brass furniture mounts are common features of oversized chests and cupboards.
Seating is often large, with low backs and curved lines. Fiddle backs, restrained cabriole legs and sumptuous brocade upholstery are prevalent in Empire style. The beauty of this aesthetic is enhanced by panelled walls with contrasting bright tones, deep colours, and golden accents. Each room in a house usually has its own colour scheme. Moulding and entrances frequently include the classic egg and dart motif.
