Hello,

Since I am not involved with the WWII living history anymore, my focus is now on the Edwardian-1920s eras and I was wondering if anyone here could help me with regards to groups, forums, networks that focus on these eras specifically. It seems like a lot of the vintage/retro living sites focus more on the 1940s-1960s eras so it's been hard for me to really find anything. I'm interested in connecting with those who are involved in these eras because I've moved and acquired two vintage furniture items and I am guessing that they might date from the 1920s (although I could be wrong).

Thanks

The Lounge seems to focus on everything from the Late Victorian era (1880s) up to the 1960s, so I'd be very surprised if you couldn't find an Edwardian-20s discussion-area here somewhere. Or maybe the mods could create something.

I though the Edwardian era was 1901 to at the most 1919?

Ok - I'm also interested in mid-late Victorian era as I have an interest in 19th c. Finland.

That's what my estimation of that time period was...for the most part. I don't know if the 1890s would be considered a part of the late Victorian era or not.

Victoria died in 1901, so the 1890s were the last flourishing of the Victorian age. King Edward died in 1910, but I think you could argue that the "Edwardian Age" continued until 1914, when the war put a definitive end to it.

Searching for the word "Edwardian" using the advanced search function here, and limiting for titles only, got me close to 50 results.
