The Georgian period spanned the reigns of English Kings George I – George IV in England, from 1714 until 1820.  Georgian furniture is known for elegance, simplicity, fine quality, balance and lack of ornamentation. Mahogany, a durable tropical hardwood, with straight grain and rich color, was widely available during the Georgian period, and figures prominently in antique furniture of this style and time period.
