I am only posting this (for the 30 readers of rec.antiques) because I
like to support the local boys.

http://www.simplystickley.com/content.html

Tell you what, next time I get down to El Paso I will go by and have a
look at their stuff and report on it.

I'd like one of those chairs. I down loaded the catalog and never did
see any prices. Perhaps this is a case of "if you have to ask". In
which case, I can find any number of good chairs that are not repros
(Ronnie's trunks notwithstanding). ;)

As always, I have a story. There was a kid who had a little antiques
store. I bought a Japanese vase from him, finally, for $40 that I just
love. Call it 1st half of the 20th Century. To this day, I like it a
lot.

Anyway, he had a couple of Stickley chairs. They had those metal
badges nailed on, you know the ones, Roycroft did something similar.
One day I dropped in and he told me someone had stolen the metal
badges off the chairs.

I should have bought those chairs (before someone stole the tags).
They were cheap. But I didn't have any money in those days.

You can find the furniture on store websites; IIRC, a loveseat's
about $1400. In range of moderate furniture prices.

Not Stickley, but certainly "Arts and Crafts" and most definitely not
repro but all genuine period (period with a small p). Scottish (Glasgow)
English and other styles. Great dealer with lovely clean stock, a joy to
visit.
