If you enjoy the honesty and clean lines of the early 20th-century Arts and Crafts movement, you’ll especially appreciate this “Best Of,” a Stickley-inspired square dining table that extends into a spacious rectangle for entertaining. There’s a certain comfortable authenticity about the strong lines, solid woods, and soft finishes of this style, whose ideals influenced firebrand architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The very opposite of pretentious, this handsome dining table lends an ease to entertaining that’s especially welcoming for close family and friends. Note the clipped corners of the top, the distinctive diagonal stretchers, and the pinned thru-tenons where the stretchers join the legs—all distinctive elements of the craftsman aesthetic of the early 1900s. The table is hand crafted of quarter-sawn white oak by California’s accomplished, highly respected Voorhees Craftsman. The piece celebrates a noble confluence of exceptional craftsmanship and pure functionality, and it is tailor-made for the kind of gracious, unassuming dining that we all enjoy so much.
