Characteristics of antique French-style furniture are easy to spot:
-Curving, "cabriole" chair legs inspired by animals' hind legs;
-sinewy serpentine lines; embellishments featuring everything from swirling scrolls and arabesques to intricate, grotesque scenes;
-"boullework" surfaces made of brass inlaid into ebony or tortoiseshell;
-ornamental brass corner mounts of "ormolu," or bronze treated to look like gold;
-and sumptuous pastel silk upholstery with floral needlework.
