Fun Historical Fact The Louis XVI style became popular in France during the late 18th century and was known for its straight lines, fluted legs, and neoclassical details. Unlike the more ornate and curved Louis XV style before it, Louis XVI furniture was inspired by the balance and symmetry of ancient Greek and Roman design. Marble tops were often used to add elegance, durability, and a refined architectural feel to furniture. In the 1970s, American makers like Ethan Allen revived these classic French influences for homes that wanted traditional elegance with everyday functionality.
