Rich History
For more than 120 years, Stickley has stood for unparalleled American craft. And our story began with three words: “Als Ik Kan”—to the best of my ability.
In the few months he spent working with Gustav Stickley, the architect, artist, and designer Harvey Ellis made his mark on Stickley furniture and American Arts and Crafts. See why his lighter, more decorative style has made our Harvey Ellis Collection a perennial best seller!
Harvey Ellis inlay patterns—including elongated floral abstracts, sailing ships, and woodland scenes—add beautiful decorative detail. Our modern interpretations are composed primarily of colorful woods like cherry, makore, English sycamore, magnolia, and bird’s-eye maple, with occasional copper rings and accents.
Harvey Ellis modified and lightened Stickley’s heavier, more rectilinear pieces, adding features like overhanging tops, bowed sides, and rounded aprons that lifted pieces gracefully from the ground.
Harvey Ellis dressers offer three wood and hardware options. Cherry drawer fronts feature matching cherry knobs.
Harvey Ellis curly maple drawer fronts feature round walnut knobs circled with a copper ring.
Harvey Ellis oak drawer fronts are paired with dark copper bail pulls in a classic Mission style.
Harvey Ellis is available in two woods, each with its own hand-rubbed finish options. Choose quartersawn white oak for a deeply grained, dimensional appearance, or cherry for a subtler grain, rich in patina.
Mission oak and cherry finishes have a unique clarity seldom seen in furniture today, ensuring that every detail of the wood grain is not only visible but beautifully enhanced.
Cases feature Mission-style bail pulls in dark copper, walnut knobs, or cherry knobs depending on drawer front woods.
