A Century in the Pines
Over a century of beautiful American and English antiques. This rare turn of the century estate is tribute to the historical Craftsman Period homes gracing downtown Southern Pines. The contents exquisitely representing the Arts and Crafts era in fine detail. These unique furnishings compliment the true American artisan style of strong clean cut lines and smart utility softened with curved glass, light reflective beveled mirrors, and finished edges that give the appearance of being crafted in place. The Arts and Crafts Secretary can truly transform the space it stands end. The Arts and Craft movement swept the nation establishing American furniture makers as notable craftsmen. No longer borrowing from European heavy handed veneers or over-flourished Victorian they drew from their own history of can-do primitives, no-nonsense Shaker, clean-lined Deco, and lightly-ornate lovely Eastlake to pave the way for mid-century modern with function while giving a natural edge with occasional whimsy. It's all about the rich heritage of wood and showcasing it's native pine, oak, hickory, maple and walnut. Loose the paintbrush and breath in the essence of lemon oil and heart-wood. Each piece has the potential to transition into any home with ease from contemporary, rustic to it's own genre Craftsman. The Simmons Iron Beds with built in spring box are showstoppers.
