- Graduated Drawers - A bank of drawers, where the top drawer has the least depth, and the depth of the each drawer is greater than the drawer above.
- Feather Banding - Inlaid banding found on the edges of tables, drawers and other items, where two strips of veneer are laid at right angles to each other, but at 45 degrees to the perimeter of the edge, to give a herringbone effect.
- Bun Feet - Similar to ball feet, though somewhat compressed or flattened in appearance. Introduced during the late 17th century, but they have been used on furniture up to the present day.
