The style Middle Ages
In order to understand the evolution of household furniture, it is necessary to begin by considering the furniture of the Middle Ages. From what little furniture we succeeded, for the simple reason that wood is a brittle material that degrades over time, but also because the furniture was rather limited at the time. Indeed, chairs, beds, tables and chests were the entire furniture. Until the Renaissance, the development of domestic comfort was negligible.
The Gothic style of the era of knights and troubadours began to overtake Roman style, his predecessor, around the mid-twelfth century in the Ile de France, the former Northern Province of France with Paris as its capital. Apart from Italy, Gothic reigned throughout Europe until the late fifteenth century, with national variations much more pronounced than in the Romanesque style. His influence is clearly visible in the furniture field, strongly architected.
In the Middle Ages, when the great nobles changed their place of residence, they moved with them all the valuables they possessed. The furniture was therefore designed to be easily removable and transportable, the word function furniture underscores.
The traveling trunks, covered with leather or canvas, and sometimes applied, were used to transport clothes, tapestries, textiles, cushions, bedspreads, silver precious linen, toiletries and furniture. These boxes were fitted with locks and handles and they had generally no feet. The greatest furniture, bedding and construction rather rough, often left in the castles because they were not a real temptation for looters and, where appropriate, a serious loss. In this category, there are long tables, removable media and sometimes iron trestles and chairs; beds, literally wooden frame along with expected large curtains insulate its occupants from drafts and provide some intimacy; elements such as recessed cabinets and benches.
The Gothic furniture is solid, massive and austere. The forms commonly used are mainly rectilinear vertical. The use of curved lines is reserved for folding chairs in the shape of X, taken from the Roman siege Curule.
North of the Alps, the surfaces to decorate the Gothic furniture is mostly covered with a sculpture at once bold and vigorous, clean treatment of oak. The ornaments used are generally derived from the architecture of wood and reproduce the work of the masons. The leaves pattern, such as maple, parsley, cabbage, watercress and vines, were very popular and selected in the plant world. The reasons for fenestration, copied the beautiful Gothic windows, also experienced a significant trend and were richly reproduced on the panels of cabinets, dressers and chests. The setting for the most common signs that said, however parchment folded, clean to decline at an infinite number of variations, ranging from simple to complex.
The preserved medieval furniture is extremely rare. The knowledge we have today is therefore largely dependent on internal representations found in illuminated manuscripts, the bas-reliefs in wood, ivory and stone carvings, and the accounts and inventory time. Thus it is possible to establish that the furniture in the great hall of the castle, used mainly for dining and parties, consisted of tables and benches of every description, from the pulpit of the householder, safes, d cabinets, sometimes a buffet or sideboard that presents the silverware and other valuable treasures. Colorful fabrics were also decorate the furniture and cushions were placed on the seats to make a vague feeling of comfort and luxury.
In medieval times, the chair was the symbol of power and its expected use of the householder and his guests. It is generally accepted that this type of medieval siege takes its origin in the safe that we have added panels form a backrest and sides. Because the chairs were emblematic of the power of the state, they, massive appearance, were richly carved.
In the medieval house, the trunk occupied a prominent place in the furniture. No other furniture could be replaced. In addition to actual storage and transportation, he served as a seat, bed, table and kitchen is turned into a crib in which the bread was kneaded and then, once cooked, preserved.
