This era saw a significant shift towards functional, yet aesthetically pleasing, designs that often incorporated new materials and manufacturing techniques. Walnut wood was a favored material during this period due to its rich color and durability, lending itself well to the sleek silhouettes of the time.

China cabinets and hutches from this period served both practical storage needs and as display pieces for fine china and decorative items.
