    To identify 18th-century furniture, you can research your piece in the context of the prevailing styles of the period or consult a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. To identify your item on your own, look over it for maker's marks, such as carvings, stamps, brands and labels.

Without a maker's mark, the best approach is to consider the characteristics of the dominant furniture styles during the 18th century.
