The things from that era such as furniture are referred to as Elizabethan period design.
A toilet was called a privy! A bathroom was a privy chamber. It was a great honor to be the maid or man servant of the privy chamber, you got to do the royal *** wiping and got to dump and clean the pot.
There were not forks either then.
Glasses were referred to as flasks.
I use to know more but would have to look it up, there are many sites on Henry VIII and Eliza I with links on how life was back there.
Oh , there were not phones.
