Sheraton Style
Sheraton is a late 18th-century Neoclassical English furniture style, in vogue 1785–1820, that was coined by 19th-century collectors and dealers to credit furniture designer Thomas Sheraton, whose books, ''The Cabinet Dictionary'' (1803) of engraved designs and the ''Cabinet Maker's & Upholsterer's Drawing Book'' (1791) of furniture patterns exemplify this style. The Sheraton style was inspired by the Louis XVI style and features round, tapered legs, fluting and, most notably, contrasting veneer inlays. Sheraton style furniture takes lightweight rectilinear forms, using satinwood, mahogany, tulipwood, sycamore and rosewood for inlaid decorations, although painted finishes are also to be found. Swags, husks, flutings, festoons, and rams' heads are amongst the common motifs applied to pieces of this style. The style brought the Neoclassical taste of architects like Robert Adam within reach of the middle class. In many respects, Sheraton style corresponds with the contemporary D ...

Epiphone Sheraton
The Epiphone Sheraton is a thinline semi-hollow body electric guitar. Though the Sheraton and all its variations were introduced under the ownership of the Gibson Guitar Corporation, Epiphone is the exclusive manufacturer. History Under the ownership of Epaminondas ("Epi") Stathopoulo, Epiphone was a leading manufacturer of hollow-body and archtop guitars. Epi Stathopoulos died in 1943. Control of the company went to his brothers, Orphie and Frixo. In 1951, a four-month-long strike forced a relocation of Epiphone from New York to Philadelphia. The company was bought out by their main rival, Gibson in 1957. In 1958, Gibson began to expand upon its Epiphone line of semi-hollow guitars. They reworked Epiphone's old Century hollowbody archtop into a thinline hollowbody electric fitted with one "New York" single coil pickup(later replaced by a P-90 pickup, since 1961) in the neck position. This was followed by the introduction of a twin-pickup, double-cut thinline semi-hollowbody, t ...
