Rustic Furniture

RUSTIC STYLE

For some, the phrase “rustic style” suggests a house like “La Pitchoune,” the late chef Julia Child’s cottage in Provence, with its exposed wooden beams and well-worn antique furniture. For others, rustic furnishings and decor prompt images of a place like the Lake Placid Lodge in Upstate New York, with its stone fireplaces and knotty pine paneling. Indeed, rustic furniture design takes many forms: twig furniture, a plank trestle table, a hand-stitched quilt, a chandelier made of deer antlers.

The rustic style originated in the late 1800s in England, where it was heavily influenced by Romanticism. By the 20th century, it had spread to the United States, adopted by wealthy New Yorkers and the National Park Service alike. Although there are many categories of rustic furniture, one of the most popular and familiar manifestations of the style is the 1903 Thomas Lee Adirondack chair.

Rustic design is perhaps mostly about texture and humble materials: hand-hewn wood, woven rush seating, wrought iron, coarse stone and weathered metal. As a decor, it exudes warmth and honesty, while a single piece of countrified design adds an intriguing visual counterpoint in a sleek, modern environment.

Easily identifiable by its rough textures, earthy colors and natural materials, rustic furniture helps bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. As you can see on 1stDibs, rustic wares offer no end of inspiration.

Tennessee Antique American Hand Built Primitive Blanket Chest Relic Cow Feeder
Located in Atlanta, GA
Yes. You read that correctly. This is an antique American mid to late 19th century Tennessee hand built primitive blanket chest relic which served as a trough for a cow. I'll be the first (maybe) to tell you that antique dealers can spin a yarn. The dealer from whom I purchased this table - quick side note for a joke... 'there's two antique dealers on a deserted island - business is great' - told me this tale. "So Heather (that's me) I bought this chest from the great grandson who told me that one day his great grand ma asked his great grand pa for a blanket chest. The grand pa went out into their property, cut down a tree and made this for her. Later they used it to hold the feed for their cow." Not exactly Wordsworth, but it's a tale nonetheless. I bought because, well, have you looked at those lines? The wear? The silhouette? Seriously, this is a beautiful piece of rustic American primitive furniture...
