American Colonial furniture is furniture made between 1650 and 1820, primarily for the American market. During this time, American furniture styles tended to follow what was in fashion in England, although the time between design in England and appearance in America was quite lengthy. Generally, American furniture differed from English furniture in that American furniture was simpler in both form and decoration.
