AB Estate inventories are excellent sources for the study of lifestyle and household equipment of the Prague burghers during the pre-White Mountain period. The article deals with the most affluent families whose household equipment was similar to that of the nobles. The inventories not only enable the study of household furniture, daily objects, and luxurious equipment, but also the particular arrangement of these objects in the rooms. Especially the well-inventoried estates allow for the reconstruction of the room configuration in the house, their connection and way of use.
