  • Regency Period - The Regency period in English furniture design refers to the period when King George III, was declared unfit to rule in 1811, and his son ruled as proxy as Prince Regent, until 1820, and then, after the death of his father as George IV until his death in 1830. The Regency period was preceded by the Georgian period (George I, George II, and George III: 1714 - 1811), and was followed by the William IV period, which only lasted until 1837 when William IV died as was succeeded by Queen Victoria.
  • Brushing Slide - A brushing slide is a sliding shelf between the top drawer and the top surface of a chest of drawers or desk, or above the middle drawer of a tallboy. It could be pulled out to provide a surface on which clothes could be laid out for brushing prior to wearing, for folding clothes or for writing, though Sheraton also refers to it as a 'writing slide'.. A brushing slide is found mainly on 18th century chests of drawers, and is regarded as a key indication of period.
