On Tuesday, November 11, Stickley Corporate Historian Mike Danial, will present the popular “Stickley Roadshow” - a fascinating look at the 105-year history of this remarkable American furniture company. Danial will reveal Stickley’s unique construction features, identifying marks and brands, and design history, and will examine Stickley’s many contributions to the American arts & crafts movement.

The arts & crafts movement in America began in the late 19th century and was a stylistic reaction against the ornate carving and excesses of Victorian decoration. Clean, simple lines, quality materials, and honest, hand-crafted construction were the new standard for design. The style remained popular into the 1920’s, then waned as America burst into the modern age. Stickley is widely regarded as the leading manufacturer of fine quality arts & crafts furnishings.

Here in the Northwest, Stickley and the arts &crafts style are veritable design icons, due in part to the many historic bungalows in the region, and the large number of newly constructed craftsman-style homes.

Admission to the Stickley Roadshow event is free, however seating is limited. Please call (425) 450-9999 for reservations.

All in-stock mirrors are on sale for 20% off the MSRP during November.  There are some incredible looking mirrors from a variety of manufacturers. 

Charles Spencer of the althorp estate (and furniture collection) toured the country (and Canada) signing pieces from  his collection.  Hopefully he will be able to visit our stores next year!

We were invited by Mrs Audi and Edward Audi of Stickley to sit with them at the American Furniture Hall of Fame dinner on Tuesday evening in High point, NC.  Mr. Alfred Audi was  inducted into the Hall along with three others.  It was a special night to be there when the announcement was made and an honor to sit next to the Audis. 

it is a small table with flower detail on top….I hope to be able to post a picture soon….we bought 15 of them half in oak/half in cherry

We just got back from High Point, North Carolina last night and found some beautiful new things.  While not well attended, the market offering from many manufacturers was very nice.  Many new accessories, some new small scaled upholstery pieces and new resources.
