I'm considering purchasing a Lakeside Crafts Shops piece and can't find any info on the web. Does anyone have that book that covers all the pieces? The piece I'm considering is an interesting cross between a cellarette and a footstool; it has a leather top, an open shelf and then a door with brass hardware that opens down, not out. It's roughly two feet wide, maybe a little over a foot deep and a foot and a half tall. Also, can anyone give a price range? I know their stuff is not as high as Stickley, but I've never seen a piece like this. I usually only see smoke stands and bookshelves. The patina is original and it is marked and in otherwise very good shape. I can buy it for $200. Thanks in advance.
I found a Lakeside crafts shop smoke stand with original label in great condition. The stand was rather plan, but intact with original finish and lined humidor. I don't have a key to the lock. I found it in a little shop for $39.00. Whem I asked the owner if I was reading the price correctly, she said she could do better! I paid $33.00. Probably my best A&C buy. I also have a Lakeside Cellarette. I am hoping the value to Lakeside Crafters just keeps increasing.
Hello Jackson, Since you are in Troy, Ohio and I in London we are only about forty miles apart. I would be honored if you were to drop down sometime. We could talk in length about the A&C Movement and what it means to keep it alive.
