To mark the 20th Anniversary of its enormously successful reissue of Mission furniture,
Stickley is proud to announce the launching of the Columbus Avenue Collection of classic Mission furniture. Named for Gustav Stickley’s family home on Columbus Avenue in Syracuse, New York, two of the designs were actually used prominently in the Stickley residence, while three others are related to pieces from Stickley’s home.
On Christmas Eve 1901, the Stickley home burned in a spectacular three-hour fire.
Gustav was then at the peak of his creative powers, and rather than being discouraged by
his loss he used the rebuilding as an opportunity to create a home environment no one had ever seen before. The resulting interior became a subject of publication and wide study, a revered showpiece of 20th-century design, and a potent influence on many branches ofAmerican furniture-building and architecture.
Stickley has now reissued seven impressive furniture designs that can live up to the
historic Columbus Avenue name. We proudly introduce these, and several other fresh
products, available exclusively at Aneita Fern: The Home of Stickley.
