  • SOFA W.22-1983 'American and European Art and Design 1800-1900' Belter, born Johann Heinrich Belter in Hanover, Germany, arrived in New York in 1833, where he worked as a cabinet-maker from at least 1844. He took out several patents including three of 1856, 1858 and 1860 concerning laminated construction, of which he was a major pioneer. His works were imitated by several other firms in New York. This is the most elaborate example of his work so far discovered. [1987-2006] Sofa About 1856 Designed by John Henry Belter (1804–63) USA Manufactured by J.H. Belter & Co., New York City Rosewood, solid and laminated, carved Strengthening blocks: varnished chestnut or oak Upholstery (replacement): silk damask Museum no. W.22-1983 John Henry Belter is remarkable for his technical innovation, in making furniture using laminated rather than solid wood. Born in Germany, he emigrated to the United States and eventually took out four patents relating to machinery and furniture making. The back of this ornate Rococo Revival sofa is made from seven large sheets of veneer, glued together to make a laminated board. This construction would have been expensive, but lighter and stronger than an assemblage of carved wood. [01/12/2012] (en)
