Where do you go to find the finest Arts & Crafts movement furniture in the world?
Ranked #10,866 in Home & Garden, #144,794 overall | Donates to Squidoo Charity Fund
Arts & Crafts Furniture is based on the uniquely American Arts & Crafts movement.
Founded in the late 19th century, the Arts & Crafts movement stressed utilitarian, elegant structure and handmade joinery to complement the architecture and interior design of Craftsman houses of the early 1900s. Arts & Crafts furniture making, as a movement, is based on dedication to quality and integrity.
Inspired by the French Art Nouveau the Arts and Crafts movement began around 1880 and rose to a popular height in America from 1900-1919. Founding members, such as Gustav Stickley, William Morris, and the Greene and Greene brothers, rejected the ornamentation and grandeur of Victorian décor. They contended that the other contemporary styles disguised structure and accepted cheap reproductions rather than authentic constructions. The Arts and Crafts movement is said to have even inspired and influenced the great architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

- The finest arts and crafts furniture can be found in one place: Scranton, PA. I don't know if you're familiar with the state of Pennsylvania, but Scranton has always been known for their innovative designs and what's known in the business as the Scranton look. My wife and I prefer furniture which serves no organizational purpose; it just looks great. Looks are the most important thing in the world. Thanks for this lens, you seem like a quirky dude and I respect the hell out of that. Adios muchaco!
