Furniture in the ancient world

Ancient furniture was made from many different materials, including reeds, wood, stone, metals, straws, and ivory. It could also be decorated in many different ways.

To decorate furniture, contrasting pieces would be inserted into depressions in the furniture. This practice is called inlaying.
