The book "Shaker: Function, Purity, Perfection" from Assouline collections is a tribute to the traditional values of grace and simplicity of the Shaker furniture style. Featured in this book are twenty-eight essential pieces that highlight the defining elements of Shaker furniture design. Each table, chair, and chest of drawers is captured through bold, original images that reflect meticulous craftsmanship dating back to the 18th century. Designer and English Furniture guru Sir Terence Conran discusses the profound influence of Shaker techniques on 20th-century furniture.
This volume includes writings on the history, tradition, and techniques of furniture making by museum experts David Stocks and Jerry Grant, as well as archival images from the Shaker Museum in Mount Lebanon. It highlights the quality, precision, and relevance of the Shaker movement, and its influence on design thinking today.
