Review
Rustic furniture makers take objects from nature and craft them directly into sometimes entertaining and always joyous designs. The several hundred rustic furniture builders in the U. S. today are, by and large, self-taught. They use just a few simple tools in their attempt to retain the integrity of the natural materials. Every piece they create is an original and unduplicatable, reflecting the personality and creativity of the maker. Rustic Furniture Makers highlights the lives and works of 15 different craftsmen who epitomize this exciting style. Rustic Furniture Makers presents 100 color photos and 40 b&w photos. Rustic Furniture Makers is a unique, "must have" contribution to any library art shelf or private art book collection! -- Midwest Book Review

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Large quarto in cream boards, gilt titles; dust jacket; 115 pp: color photographs; 29 cm. A richly illustrated survey of American artisans who revived and reinterpreted the rustic aesthetic in handcrafted furniture. Kylloe, an authority on the rustic movement, documents the work of contemporary makers who draw inspiration from Adirondack traditions, frontier craftsmanship, and natural materials?bark, twigs, antlers, and weathered wood?to create pieces that blend sculpture with function. Through studio profiles, photographic essays, and commentary on technique and design philosophy, the book celebrates a distinctly North American vernacular art form rooted in the wilderness yet expressive of individual creativity. It stands as both an aesthetic study and a testament to the enduring appeal of craftsmanship that honors nature?s forms.
