Rich History
For 125 years, Stickley has stood for unparalleled American craft. And our story began with three words: “Als Ik Kan”—to the best of my ability.
Welcome to Inside Stickley, a blog that offers frequent peeks behind the curtain of this iconic company. Few brands have a history as rich as ours, so we’re eager to share some of our favorite snapshots from that history, celebrate its well-known and lesser-known personalities, and remind readers why Stickley remains so special after 125 years! You’ll even find the occasional goodie among the articles: downloadable content, fun giveaways, and opportunities to share your #StickleyStyle and stories.
