He designed simple, well-made household furnishings and\n-forward-looking interiors, which he promoted through his magazine,\nThe Craftsman (1901–1916). The rugs used in his interiors are\narguably the most under-studied of all the decorative arts of the\nArts and Crafts movement. Arts and Crafts Rugs for Craftsman\nInteriors considers both the rugs that The Craftsman recommended\nand designs by artists who influenced the work and philosophy of\nStickley. Among the rugs discussed are works by British Arts and\nCrafts luminaries William Morris and Gavin Morton, druggets\nimported from India, Navajo blankets and rugs, and rare Crex and\nAbnákee examples. This essential publication illustrates the use of\nrugs in Craftsman settings and provides detailed descriptions and\ncolor photographs of more than sixty rugs drawn from the collection\nof Crab Tree Farm.
