Rose Exhibiting

Classic vs Modern shrubs

19 years ago

I'm judging my first show this Saturday. One of my assignments is Modern shrubs. I don't know the difference between Classic and Modern. Can anyone help me out, JUDGES?

I want to make a good impression.

The Classic shrubs are the Hybrid Kordesii, Hybrid Musk, Hybrid Moyesii, and Hybrid Rugosas. They are identified in your Handbook for Selecting Roses or your Official List with the abbreviations for those classes - HKor, HMsk, HMoy, and HRg. The remaining shrubs are all shown in those references with just the symbol S. They are the Modern shrubs.

The two classes should be separated in the show schedule and in their placement on the tables, so finding the Modern shrub class shouldn't be that difficult. They will likely include a bunch of Austin roses and a smattering of others. As you judge each new cultivar you can look it up in your reference to see that it has the "S" symbol after the name and not one of the Classic shrub indicators (or even an OGR class indicator or climber class indicator). Don't fret, I'm sure you will do fine.

Kokosrose,

The following is a supplement up to date list of roses as of (10-19-04) that were registered, and with corrections after the 2004 “AEN” and the 2005 Handbook were published. For a complete list of all Modern Shrub and Classic shrub roses prior to the publication of the 2004 AEN, download from this Garden Web forum the following. The “2004 Classic Shrub Rose List” posted 5-15-04, and the “2004 Modern Shrub Rose List” posted 5-14-04. The AEN or Handbook is not complete or up to date as you can see by some of the latest entries. If you have any problem, I can always e-mail you a copy. Good luck.

Ron S.

Sue2004, I am happy to hear that you learned something. Learning is not only satisfying, but it gives you the confidence to more forward! My knowledge is from years of interest in art, coupled by a need to furnish my home. While in Europe in 1984, I was exposed to a tremendous amount of art and a tremendous number of people that knew something about art. Subsequent to my return home, I enrolled in art history classes. It happened that one of my professors was very interested in architecture and furniture, so she incorporated these elements into her classes. Many of these classes required field trips to local museums and stores to see styles. A great deal of my knowledge comes from reading. I buy books on the subjectsor not. Sometimes I just sit at Barnes and Nobles and read parts of books that I think are interesting, but way overpriced. Your computer is a great tool. I am the research Queen. I am not sure I explain fully how I do it, but I manage to find a tremendous amount of info on just about any subject by using google. Try this method. You over-hear someone mention a pair of mahogany Chippendale chairs sold at auction for $150,000. So your interest is piquedÂwhy would someone pay that much money for Chippendale chairs? And by the way, what or who is Chippendale? To learn something about Chippendale, google: "define Chippendale" or "about Chippendale furniture." One source often leads to many other sources of information. You will find resources from art institutes, universities, auction houses, and just plain old fans of Chippendale furniture. When you see terms that you do not know, open a second Explorer window and google them. In an hourÂs time, you can read enough about Chippendale to learn who he was; learn which three styles influenced his style; and learn what impact his style had on the furniture world. You will then understand why someone paid $150k for two Chippendale chairs. And after viewing a number of photos of Chippendale furniture, you will be able to recognize the style when you walk into a showroom. Read magazines-good magazines: Architectural Digest, Veranda, Metropolitan Home. DonÂt just look at the pictures, read the articles. Read the little by-lines next to the photo montage of new productsÂsome of those little snippets have a lot of info. They will also pique your interest: they introduce new products, mention companies that you may never of heard of before, and cue you into design stylesÂ"Aaah, so thatÂs what Italian Deruta pottery looks like." steve o I guess I look at enduring style differently. I do not consider contemporary design as stuck in mid-century work. Applying definitive elements of a style keeps that style alive. The masterÂs work defines the style; those that follow keep the style alive. Use my example of Chippendale above. Initially, he carved in the traditional styles. Over time, he blended three other styles and his blend became a style in its own right. Now, if no one came along to continue making furniture using the defining elements of Chippendale style, it may very well have died off. Once the master defines the style, I do not think you can really take it much beyond that point. Its defining elements are established. When you move beyond the defining elements, you hybrid a style and it is no longer authentic. The new elements become style detractions that purest refuse to accept. The only logical step is to make additional changes to create a totally new style. Much like what Chippendale didÂto the delight of those of us that cannot stand Rococo anything. Okay, maybe the paintings of Elisabeth VigÃ©e-Lebrun; but her painting was strongly influenced by the Neo-Classical style. That said, I agree, steve o, there are few designers capable of creating a new style.

befenton wrote, What I thought was interesting was the notion that the architecture of the house can be different from the style of the kitchen - that the two don;t have to mesh. Many people believe that the style of the kitchen should follow the architecture of the house but perhaps not. Europeans do an amazing job of "addending" modern interiors to old building that are several hundred years old. This takes really good eye/designer and good materials. It is very common to see high end modern furniture in an advertising picture (Roche Bobois often does this since they are French) inside of a 18th century Parisian apartment with all the Baroque molding and trim work intact. This is truly gorgeous. It really makes you want to live that way...The romance of 18th century Parisian building with 10 ft ceilings and the exquisitive design of modern furniture. (At least it does to me...) We are talking apartments that cost several mil euros. Alas, the advertising works for fools like me! If one choses to do modern inside of an old building, then you really need to have a good eye and do the entire house in a style that carries it well with the architecture of the house. Modern (real modern, not contemporary) often works really well with buildings with ornate millwork because the millwork can be showcased so well when the interior pieces are nearly austere. In some of those old beautiful buildings, the original millwork, leaded windows, etc are so gorgeous, that one needs to do nearly nothing. When you do this type of design, you can't bring in grandma's floral sofa and set it next to a modern kitchen. You can't even bring "transitional/contemporary" pieces. The best modern designs often require 'ruthless editing' to take out all unnecessary components. Florantha alluded to this. People who live with Modern design often have vey strong relationship with closed door storage and cabinets. Everything has a place and goes behind a closed door! This is my sentiment but I can't get my family to practice this....

It wasn't specified and I wasn't asked about brands, although I did get a choice of a few window styles. I studied it and the door seems ok, installation looks quite good. Some casings were painted and they contained lead, so they had to be replaced. Here's a collage of the work in progress as of today: 1. After removing the storms some exterior areas are now exposed. Looks like these open edges may need to be wrapped? 2. Sticker confirms Reflections 5500, noticeable 1/4" gap above this center window, slightly damaged corners on this window (see #9) and it's missing the top plastic rail that all the other windows have. Frankencasing on left. All windows are in place but seem loose (wobble when pushed), so I think there is more installation to do. 3. Another window, noticeable gap on top and left, wobbly, not finished. 4. 2-piece center Frankencasing (centers only, others are 1-piece). Also note missing top plastic rail on right vs left. 5. Original center belly casing. 6. Top plastic rail, missing on center window in #2. 7. Replacement apron from molding cut on angle. 8. Original apron, showing craftsmanship. 9. One set of triple windows in context. You can currently see light through the upper gap in center window, not noticeable so much in this photo. Also note damage on right corner (and to a lesser extent left corner) on the center window. Possibly dropped and the plastic railing shattered off. Looks relatively minor, but I think that rail plays a part in filling these gaps? Amazing how much glass you lose with replacement windows, especially so with thick frames like on the Reflections 5500.

Mrykbee and pandtkendall, thank you for your replies. That's great you found what you wanted on Craig's List. Nothing better than getting what you like at a price you like. Pandtkendall that's great you enjoy your HM sofa and enjoyed working with Duane. Here's to many, many years of enjoyment. I am comfortable buying furniture from a distant company. Thanks for mentioning Duane. I will look him up. I'd love to travel to his store in the near future. I bought a Classic Leather sofa and recliner in 1987 from a company in Southern Pines owned by two fantastic brothers Miller and Cliff Barnes. I never met them and did everything over the phone The furniture has seen heavy use and three large dogs over the years. I love the leather but I'm tired of the style. The sofa still looks good but the recliner is aging. My husband and I used to sit in the recliner together and then our 90 pound dog would climb up on our laps. I took care of the furniture and faithfully cleaned it and moved the cushions around. Maybe around ten years or so I had new insides made for the cushions. The sofa sits right in front of a big window with lots of light. There isn't any sun damage. At some point I tried to kill the furniture using 409 or water and vinegar to clean it but didn't die. (Not cleaning products I'd ever suggest). I have no idea what type of leather but it's soft and indestructible. I realize today's leather will not be as good as the older leather we have but we want our next set to also be leather. Again, thanks for getting back to me..
