Fun Historical Fact

Queen Anne-inspired furniture experienced continued popularity in American interiors throughout much of the 20th century. Its signature cabriole leg evolved from earlier European furniture traditions and became one of the most recognizable elements of the style. Lane Furniture began in Altavista, Virginia, and eventually expanded its production far beyond the cedar storage pieces that initially established its reputation. During the later 20th century, Lane offered furniture in a wide variety of design traditions, allowing classic forms to coexist with the contemporary styles of the period.
