Society was stable with firm economic growth, and this produced a rapidly growing class of nouveau riche artisans and professionals all requiring the trappings of an earlier and grander age but condensed into smaller houses. Much of the furniture designed for smaller scale living comes under the heading of occasional furniture. Usually this furniture is used for a particular occasion and then pushed out of the wayagainst the wall. Today, occasional furniture continues to encompass pieces that are required for convenience such as the modern entertainment cabinet, coffee table and lamp table, as well as objects that are used around every room of the house.
