High Wycombe, grad lociran u jugozapadnom dijelu Engleske, tokom 19-tog stoljeća bio je perjanica industrije namještaja za čitavo Britansko Kraljevstvo. Danas, s obzirom na uvođenje novih materijala i trendova koji bi namještaj učinili poželjnim, kao i radi jeftine radne snage na području jugoistočne Azije i istočne Evrope, ovaj industrijski sektor je postao dio prošlosti. Danas svega nekoliko kompanija koje se nalaze u ovome gradu predstavljaju ovaj sektor.
Ovaj rad dokumentira evoluciju industrije namještaja High Wycombe kroz vrijeme i razotkriva šta je prouzročilo pad sektora proizvodnje stolica. Također predočava utjecaj industrijalizacije na razvoj industrije namještaja, istorijski prati uspon i pad u ovome sektoru na lokalnoj razini, te prikazuje kakav je status ova industrija imala u sedamdesetim godinama.
