What is Regency furniture?

Regency is a style of furniture that emerged during the early 19th century, when the Prince of Wales, future King George IV, assumed rule of the United Kingdom as Regent while his father, George III, was ill. Rather than the rich carvings and curves of earlier periods, it is characterized by plain lines and surfaces, slender legs and right angles highlighted by elaborate, often metal, ornamentation.

What is Hollywood Regency style?

Hollywood Regency style is a design style that emerged in California during the Golden Age of Hollywood from the 1920s to the 1950s. Decadent and bold, vintage Hollywood Regency furniture and interiors playfully mix colors like jewel tones and hot pinks with lacquered walls, gilded accents, mirrored surfaces and metallic finishes for maximalist spaces. Although it involved elements of the coinciding Art Deco movement, such as a preference for clean lines, Hollywood Regency was much more opulent, inspired by glamorous movie stars and the lavish set designs for films being made in Tinseltown. Furniture designers associated with the style embraced an eclectic range of influences, including throwbacks to previous styles of grandeur, such as Rococo, neoclassical and chinoiserie, as well as materials from bamboo dining chairs to lucite bar carts to sunburst mirrors made from gilded resin. Hollywood Regency end tables, floor lamps, chandeliers and other pieces tended to be small in scale, fitting into an overall design rather than serving as a focal point. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of Hollywood Regency furniture, lighting and decorative objects.

Why is it called a coffee table?

Stuart Foote, the designer behind the American Imperial Furniture Company, claimed to have invented the coffee table in the early 20th century. He stated that he did so by cutting down the legs of a dining table. However, it's unlikely that Foote is the actual inventor of the coffee table, as books describing coffee tables existed in the UK a decade before his birth in 1872.Shop a wide variety of coffee tables on 1stDibs.

Questions About Regency Coffee Can

What is Regency furniture?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertMay 21, 2019
Regency is a style of furniture that emerged during the early 19th century, when the Prince of Wales, future King George IV, assumed rule of the United Kingdom as Regent while his father, George III, was ill. Rather than the rich carvings and curves of earlier periods, it is characterized by plain lines and surfaces, slender legs and right angles highlighted by elaborate, often metal, ornamentation.
What is Hollywood Regency style?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
Hollywood Regency style is a design style that emerged in California during the Golden Age of Hollywood from the 1920s to the 1950s. Decadent and bold, vintage Hollywood Regency furniture and interiors playfully mix colors like jewel tones and hot pinks with lacquered walls, gilded accents, mirrored surfaces and metallic finishes for maximalist spaces. Although it involved elements of the coinciding Art Deco movement, such as a preference for clean lines, Hollywood Regency was much more opulent, inspired by glamorous movie stars and the lavish set designs for films being made in Tinseltown. Furniture designers associated with the style embraced an eclectic range of influences, including throwbacks to previous styles of grandeur, such as Rococo, neoclassical and chinoiserie, as well as materials from bamboo dining chairs to lucite bar carts to sunburst mirrors made from gilded resin. Hollywood Regency end tables, floor lamps, chandeliers and other pieces tended to be small in scale, fitting into an overall design rather than serving as a focal point. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of Hollywood Regency furniture, lighting and decorative objects.

Who invented the coffee table?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024
No one knows for sure who invented the coffee table. The earliest examples of the occasional table can be traced back to Victorian-era Britain. At that time, makers like William Watt and Collinson and Lock were producing coffee tables in large quantities.

Notably, F. Stuart Foote, the designer behind the American Imperial Furniture Company, claimed to have invented the coffee table in the early 20th century. He stated that he did so by cutting down the legs of a dining table. However, it's unlikely that Foote is the actual inventor of the coffee table, as books describing coffee tables existed in the UK a decade before his birth in 1872.
