Gustav Stickley - Craftsman Style
At Craftsman-Style.org you will find:
Craftsman Style, as developed and promoted by Gustav Stickley, was much more than a collection of house plans and decorating ideas. To him it was an entire life style and philosophy of living. He published a popular magazine "The Craftsman" promoting his work and had factories producing the furniture and furnishings with which he built and decorated his homes.
A quick visit to Ebay and search on the term "Stickley" will quickly provide a feel for the range of craftsman products still available and their popularity with modern homeowners and decorators. Unfortunately, it will also demonstrate how sellers use his name to "Keyword spam" their listing titles in an effort to trick bidders into looking at their auctions.
Stickley furniture and furnishing ideas are still popular and there is an active market for original products as well as reproductions. In addition, there are many restoring craftsman style bungalow homes who need guideance on the best way to renovate while retaining as much of the old style and charm as possible.
