- All About the Adirondack Chair
- Many people consider the early 1900's to be the greatest period in American furniture making history. In reaction to the highly ornate, fussy, and oftentimes rather useless furniture styles of the Victorian era, the Arts and Crafts movement came like a breath of fresh air into the homes of America, turning them from stuffy museums into places of light and simplicity, where folks could really live! Function was the number one concern of the furniture makers of this time, also called the Craftsman period, and chairs, benches, tables, beds all feature plain, comfortable lines and beautiful wood. The famous adirondack chair fits very neatly into this moment in time, a perfect example of the Craftsman principles of superior form and function. No wonder it has been one of the most sought-after pieces of furniture in the U.S. for more than 100 years.
