Description

Arts and Crafts is more than a style of architecture. It is an enduring furniture style that honors the tradition of fine craftsmanship and attention to detail. This book takes a fresh look at the history and influences that resulted in beautiful, functional pieces designed to enhance the interiors of classic Arts and Crafts homes. From William Morris and the roots of the movement, through Gustav Stickley, the Prairie School, and including contemporary pieces, this book celebrates the classic furniture — and the master craftsmen who made it. Arts and Crafts Furniture gives a comprehensive look at the design and construction of this furniture, with nearly 500 color photos illustrating examples of the style. An extensive list of resources and full bibliography is included. (Review from Amazon website)
