Description

Settle back and the cushioned bustle back meets you with welcoming support, while canted spindle arms frame the seat in classic Arts and Crafts fashion. Visible through-tenons and a row of slender spindles give it the look of a cherished heirloom rather than a typical recliner.

Beneath that handcrafted exterior is a smooth manual recline that eases you into a feet-up position for an evening movie or a well-earned nap. Its trim, upright frame fits comfortably into a den, reading corner or family room without dominating the floor plan.

Design Details

  • Manual recliner modeled on the original Morris chair, an early forerunner of the modern recliner
  • Canted spindle arms with visible through-tenons that showcase honest Arts and Crafts joinery
  • Bustle back cushion that adds plush, contemporary comfort to a traditional frame
  • Manual reclining mechanism that opens into a full, legs-up recline
  • Frame of solid quartersawn white oak, with oak or cherry and any finish available by special order
  • Upholstered in Colman Olive, a supple top-grain leather
  • Also available in any fabric or leather from the maker's library through our showrooms
  • Handcrafted in Manlius, New York

Why You'll Love It

  • A smooth manual recline turns a handsome armchair into a true place to stretch out and relax.
  • Spindle arms and exposed through-tenons give it the presence of fine furniture, not a bulky recliner.

About the brand

American hardwood furniture, handcrafted since 1900

Stickley has been making furniture in America for 125 years, carrying on the Arts & Crafts legacy of Gustav Stickley and the cabinetmaking of his brother Leopold, the "dean of cabinet makers." Today the family-owned L. & J.G. Stickley builds premium hardwood furniture and fine upholstery with time-honored construction techniques from its home in Manlius, New York.

Stickley is best known for its white oak and cherry, sourced from Appalachian, Adirondack, New York and Pennsylvania forests that are growing faster than they are harvested, often from small family-owned woodlots it has worked with for decades. Pieces are intentionally overbuilt to last for generations, and every piece is backed structurally for the lifetime of the original owner.

Warranty

Manufacturer warranty

Stickley stands behind its furniture for the lifetime of the original owner: if a piece fails structurally at any time because of workmanship or material, Stickley will repair or replace it at its discretion, with a replacement of the same or similar color, design, style and quality if repair is not practical. Coverage begins when the piece is delivered to your home.

To make a claim, contact Seldens as your authorized Stickley dealer with your original sales receipt; you must be the original owner, and Stickley or the dealer may need to inspect the piece. Misuse or abuse voids the warranty, items sold as-is or final sale carry no warranty, and fabric mills do not guarantee the colorfastness or wear of fabrics.

Every piece is backed by its manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage varies by brand.
