Shaker Legacy by Christian Becksvoort
Shaker Legacy


Solid construction and honest functionality make Shaker furniture one of the most popular and timeless design categories. Based on extensive research and personal experience with the last working Shaker community in Maine, this book traces the roots of Shaker design to Shaker belief, which inspired the clean lines, careful craftsmanship, and signature details that define the style. The author also discusses the less known Victorian period of Shaker design and shows how this style has influenced subsequent ones. A bibliography, glossary, and index are included.

Stickley Style: Arts and Crafts Homes in the Craftsman Tradition by David Cathers and Alexander Vertikoff
Stickley Style: Arts and Crafts Homes in the Craftsman Tradition


Beginning in the very first year of the twentieth century, Gustav Stickley made furniture that is prized almost a hundred years later for its honesty, simplicity, and usefulness. As a designer and manufacturer who emphasized careful workmanship, respect for natural materials, and simple lines, Stickley had a profound impact on the look of American homes. Today, Arts and Crafts design -- synonymous with Stickley to many people -- has become an American passion.

Elegantly designed and lushly photographed, Stickley Style is the first major publication to explore in full photographic color the central role Stickley played in the development of Arts and Crafts design. Author David Cathers invites us into the world of this influential furniture maker and provides us with an insider's tour of some of the country's most important Stickley collections and interiors. Here, imbued with pure and simple lines, are the comfortable Morris chairs, the upright settles, the solid oak chests, the hammered metalwork, and the delicate textiles that have come to epitomize Stickley's style.

But Stickley was more than a furniture maker -- he was a one-man phenomenon: book and Magazine publisher, proponent of a simple and natural lifestyle, and de facto leader of the Arts and Crafts movement in America.

Textiles in America, 1650-1870 by Florence M. Montgomery
Textiles in America, 1650-1870




First published in 1984, this remains the definitive study of textiles as they were used in early American homes.The book offers an overview of textiles in America, based on years of research, that is unmatched in scope. Imported textiles played a central role in the lives of American colonists. The most-imported commodity, and a highly valued one, textiles were used for bedding, bed curtains, clothing, household linens, window curtains, upholstery, and floor covering. This book illustrates samples from collections around the world, as well as drawings and engravings of the time. Its dictionary-style entries depict the myriad household uses for textiles in the period. Drawing on original documents, prints, paintings, commercial records, merchant papers, advertisements, and pattern books, Textiles in America is a comprehensive resource, and a treasure trove of scholarship. 117 color, 255 black & white illustrations

The Antique Story Book: Finding the Real Value of Old Things by Arthur Schwerdt
The Antique Story Book: Finding the Real Value of Old Things



Product Description

The most fun you’ll ever have learning about antiques, from the man the Philadelphia Daily News has called “the godfather of Cape May County antiquing,” can be found in The Antique Story Book: Finding the Real Value of Old Things. From his columns, lectures, and classes on antiques, author Arthur Schwerdt, a certified appraiser and dealer for nearly a quarter of a century, shares some of his favorite stories—the ones that make antiques so fascinating to so many people.

In “Love and Sex—Victorian Style,” Schwerdt tells how he learns about intimacy in that era and wonders what future antique hunters will learn about our sexuality. “The Mysterious Creator(s) of Nancy Drew” discusses the identity of the man who conceptualized Nancy Drew and her character’s influence on future literature. Most importantly, Schwerdt divulges the most enjoyable, valuable, and meaningful aspect of antiquing—the stories behind each treasure.

Long ago, every item in today’s antique shops existed as a product of its time. The Antique Story Book makes these items come alive again, making astute antique-lovers of us all.
