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.
Bombé Chest
Introduced into the Stickley Williamsburg Reserve Collection, this Bombé Chest-on-Chest is an adaptation of a piece in the Colonial Williamsburg Collections. The rounded or “kettle” base houses drawers that curve to match.
The original was produced by cabinetmakers in the Boston area circa 1780, at what was then the only known center for making this type of furniture.
Dalai Lama Chair
This oversized Eastwood Chair, based on Gustav Stickley’s original design, was created for the Dalai Lama so that he could sit cross-legged comfortably during various appearances in Central New York.
Prairie Settle
The L. & J.G. Stickley Prairie Settle, a distinctive Arts and Crafts design by Peter Hansen, is one of the most iconic forms of the period.
Harvey Ellis
Harvey Ellis joined Gustav Stickley’s Craftsman Workshops in 1903. Inspired by Japanese prints, Native American motifs, and the Arts and Crafts movement abroad, his designs brought delicacy, color, and sophistication to Gustav’s massive, solid furniture style. Soft arches, architectural designs, and intricate inlays, seen here, are characteristic of Harvey Ellis pieces.
