The American Empire style is an interpretation of the French Empire style, which was popular in Europe from 1800–1815. American furniture makers were inspired by the French Empire style and adapted it to the tastes of American consumers.
The American Empire period lasted from 1800–1840. The style is considered heavy and dark, and reflects Greek and Roman architectural motifs. It's characterized by curved arms, cabriole legs, and ornate, paw or claw feet.
