Chairs crafted by Thomas Chippendale were dazzling examples of quality furniture in their day. Today, they remain extraordinary examples of antique furniture. Chippendale style, ball and claw and ladder backs, theres lots to know. Heres your guide to one of the worlds most celebrated chairs.

Who is He.

Thomas Chippendale (1714-1779) was an English furniture maker in the mid 18th century whose work was influenced by English, French and Chinese furniture design.

A Book Made Him a Household Name.

In 1754, Thomas Chippendale published the first of three editions of his book, Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers Director. It put him on the map. This illustrated directory showed examples of the furniture that Thomas Chippendale could make for his customers. Wealthy clients could see illustrated examples, pick out the designs that they liked which would be handcrafted in his workshop. At the time, Thomas Chippendale probably didnt expect that this book would become so widely copied for so many years by other furniture makers. It continues to be used today.

A Claim to Fame.

Thomas Chippendale was the first non-reigning monarch to have a furniture style named after him. Before Thomas Chippendale, furniture styles were named after reigning Monarchs such as Louis XIV, George I, Queen Anne.

Chippendale versus Chippendale Style.

Anything made by Thomas Chippendales workshop in England is a Chippendale. Furniture made incorporating the features used by Thomas Chippendale is Chippendale-style. American Chippendale refers to Chippendale style furniture that was made in the US mostly in Philadelphia.

Chippendale Style Particulars.

The style reflected elements of the Rococo, Chinese, Gothic and Noeclassical styles. Deep hand carving was prevalent. Common motifs were of shells, lions, masques, eggs, darts and scrolls.

Favorite Wood.

Mahogany was preferred choice of wood for Chippendale style furniture. Solid wood; not veneers was often used because of the detailed carving involved.

A Lesson in Legs.

There are six basic style lions paw, ball and claw, the late Chippendale, the Marlborough, the club and the spade. Early Chippendale furniture used the cabriole leg which is a serpentine style ending with a lions paw, ball and claw or the club. The late Chippendale, Marlborough and spade were straight legs and appeared later in the period.

Seat Selection.

Chippendale style chairs were wood, upholstered or caned.

Chair Back Choice.

Upholstered, rail backs, ladder backs, rung back, splat backs, carved backs, ribband backs. The chair backs are one of the most definitive parts of the chair that typify the style. Ribband backs are carved to look like bow. Very few were made in the 18th century because it required expert craftsmen and was very time-consuming. And very few survived passed the 18th C. Most ribband back chairs around today were made in the 19th and 20th centuries.

What to Look for When Buying.

Look for original condition. Repairs and replacement lower the value. Actual pieces from Thomas Chippendales workshop are rare indeed. Make sure the provenance is strong documented when a dealer says it is a Thomas Chippendale versus a Chippendale style chair. Keep in mind that very few ribband back chairs survived from the 18th century. Be wary when someone tells you that they have one.

Reproductions Versus Antiques.

You can tell modern reproductions from the real thing by looking closely at the carving. Is it uniform in depth and symmetrical? If so, its a modern reproduction. Antique Chippendales would be hand carved which is irregular in depth and never exactly symmetrical because its virtually impossible for even a master artisan to achieve it.

Pricing.

Any Chippendale 18th century chair whether it was made by Thomas Chippendale himself or one of his contemporaries will cost several thousands of dollars. If its not in that price range, its most likely not 18th century. Even high quality modern reproductions can be pricey.

When we are young, we never think about our health, and expect that we will live our days blessed with good health and no illness or accidents. But that is not what the world is like. There is so much uncertainty in this world; you can come down with a bad virus, you can get hit by a car, you just never know what can happen to you and so you have to be prepared for anything to happen. This makes medical insurance a real must for all of us.

At one point when I was eighteen, I was offered a health insurance plan. I did not even think about taking advantage of it since I was still covered under my parents policy. But, when the time came and I should have sought out health insurance, at age 25 when I was no longer covered, I still ignored it. I was in the prime of health; what could possibly happen to me to require that I have health insurance? Put it down to dumb youth. Even at that young age, you should be careful about being protected. I was an active person; what if I hurt myself playing football or skiing? There was no way I could afford to pay a hospital bill if I broke a leg. It is a serious question to think about.

Just because you do not need medical insurance today does not mean that you will not need it tomorrow. I guess a lot of young people think that since they did not use the insurance, they just threw that money away. Why should they continue to throw it away month after month? That is just being blind to reality. Even if you never got sick, there are always accidents waiting to happen. If you were in a car accident or broke a leg, you would be very happy that you had health insurance. Doctor and hospital bills are astronomical, and very few people can afford to pay them out of pocket. Even if you do have to pay a deductible, it will not compare to the total bill if you go into the hospital after an accident. A bill like this will haunt you for the rest of your life, and the hospital and the collection agency are not going to forget about it.

If you have medical insurance, you do not have to worry about these things. The medical insurance company takes care of all of the doctor and hospital expenses. You will be very happy you had medical insurance if you are ever in an accident.

You cannot count on never having an accident or never getting sick. These things can happen to the most careful people and to the healthiest people. It will give you a great deal of peace to know that if anything does happen, most of the bills will be taken care of. We cannot possibly manage something like this on our own. We need to have health insurance during the good times to make sure it is there during the bad times when we need it.
