This study is intended to provide basic information for furniture research after the early Renaissance. Through literature research, it is found that the political background of this period initiated the movement of humanism. Economically, the sprout of capitalism appeared; in culture, the revival of classical culture made decorative art take human beauty as being the basis; in religion, religious thoughts centered on the gods began to weaken. In terms of furniture before the Italian Renaissance, the combination of Gothic and local styles formed a comprehensive Gothic style. Italian furniture at the end of the 14th century has formed the rudiment of the early Renaissance furniture. Then, through literature research and case study, it is found that the decorative patterns of seven kinds of furniture in the early Renaissance of Italy are found, including plant patterns, animal patterns, religious and mythological patterns, geometric patterns, story patterns, classical patterns, and other patterns.
