What Would 1860 Front Porch Furniture Look Like?
Decorate an antique porch of the American Civil War era with 1860 porch furniture. As a contrast to the large, wrap-around circular porches of the later Queen Anne style, mid-Victorian homes of 1860 had smaller verandas and porches. Quintessential porch wicker furniture had yet to be invented; porch furniture was often what was used in the house and brought outside for a sunny afternoon or pleasant evening.
