Descriptions of Arts and Crafts elements, from furniture to fabrics to decorative objects, give an overview of the style and illuminate its continuing influence. Plus, case studies showcase later, related styles, such as California Mission and Farmhouse Craftsman. Warm, detailed photography and engaging text make this volume a must for antiques collectors, decorators, and Arts and Crafts enthusiasts.
