Arts & Crafts Industries Ltd. designs and builds superb furniture based on the uniquely American Arts & Crafts movement.
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.

Arts and Crafts furniture was often called "mission-style" furniture. No one is certain how it got that name. Some believe it is related to the philosophy of the movement, that is the furniture was functional and had a "mission" to be used. Other believe it was because the furniture was derivative of furniture designs found in Franciscan missions in California.

Charles Rennie Mackintosh, the Scottish Architect, is closely associated with the design and manufacture of furniture. His earliest designs show a strong affinity to the Arts and Crafts movement. Much of his inspiration came from the simple furniture used in the Scottish Highlands by the Crofters, Scottish sharecroppers. Because they lived in small cottages, angles were used to conserve space. Today, the angles are considered striking and stylish.

Wikipedia on the Arts & Crafts Movement
The Arts and Crafts Movement was a British, Canadian, Australian, and American aesthetic movement occurring in the last years of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th century. Inspired by the writings of John Ruskin and a romantic idealization of a craftsperson taking pride in their personal handiwork, it was at its height between approximately 1880 and 1910.
It was a reformist movement that influenced architecture, decorative arts, cabinet making, crafts, and even the "cottage" garden designs of William Robinson or Gertrude Jekyll. Its best-known practitioners were William Morris, Charles Robert Ashbee, T. J. Cobden Sanderson, Elbert Hubbard, Walter Crane, Nelson Dawson, Phoebe Anna Traquair, Herbert Tudor Buckland, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Christopher Dresser, Edwin Lutyens, William De Morgan, Ernest Gimson, William Lethaby, Edward Schroeder Prior, Frank Lloyd Wright, Gustav Stickley, Greene & Greene, Charles Voysey, Christopher Whall, Henry Chapman Mercer, and artists in...
