Don't see what you need?
Just ask me...Most styles are available in various configurations/types & finish options (i.e. toggle vs. rocker/paddle or push button, and antique white vs. antiqued brass). In most cases, less common types of plates (i.e. triple switch/outlet plate, quadruple switchplate, etc.) can easily be special-ordered.
A brief history of the Arts & Crafts movement
At its height 100 years ago, Arts & Crafts, or Craftsman style (often incorrectly referred to as "Mission" style) was a reformist movement that began primarily as a reaction to the "soulless" machine-made production of the Industrial Revolution, and focused on honest craftsmanship & materials. The style's patterns and motifs were inspired primarily by nature, with a focus on simple, stylized patterns. Favorite subjects of the most noteable artists of the time, such as Gustav Stickley, William Morris, Frank Lloyd Wright (the father of Prairie Style), & Charles Rennie Mackintosh, were natural forms such as leaves, birds, flowers and other botanicals.
