@MiCompre IKEA is a result of hypnotizing people into the belief that they must buy new stuff every 6 months in order be "happy". The american consumuption capitalism doctrine. This doctrine is responsible for wasting 80% of raw materials for absolutely no other reason than maintaining an unrealistc, idiotic economic theory. The ones who wants this to go on, wants everything to end.
I live in Fayetteville about 10 minutes from both the main factory and flagship showroom. My parents have several Stickley pieces and I can tell you there is no better made furniture in the world.
@tussenhetoor you are wrong. Gustav Stickley (mainly - but also his brothers) followed the tradition of William Morris and the European Arts & Crafts school of design (and philosophy). Possibly there were some Dutch influences, artistic culture draws from many sources. And if you did a bit of research into the company, Stickley has a long tradition and the company has an exceptional foundation. No intellectual property was stolen by anyone. Please check your facts before mouthing off.
I use to work part time at the old Fayetteville factory when I was in high school. I was a furniture rubber doing work just like the guy seen at 6:56. The man seen at 7:56 is my childhood friend. This is a nice presentation of Stickley furniture. Hey Mr. Audi, if you see Mark Koval, please say hello to him for me. Thanks. Byron
@tennisbgc It was the 1970's when I was in high school. Working at Stickley's was a part time job for me. What was it like? Typical factory work. I'm sure the new factory is a better place to work now, but the parts of the process that are done by hand are still the same, like hand rubbing a clear finish. It was a nice place to work but I'm glad that I've moved on. The skills that I learned there are still with me today : )

Yeah.. Fantastic... Way back when; when timber was in plentiful supply and reasonably priced. Not any more. Hence the rise of IKEA!

Het is de stijl uit Holland ( Dutch) die ze kopieerden .
Dus gewone diefstal om modern te lijken .
Verder geen enkele fundering te bekennen in dit bedrijf .
Meesters in concipieer techniek , stelen van geestelijk eigendom .
Geld is wat telt.
