Sobre este artículo
Holland, Michigan: Baker Furniture Company, circa 1965. Paperbound. In quite good condition./No . Demy folio, [27.75cm/11inches], paperbound with blue pictorial covers, pp. 263. Fully illustrated with b-w halftones . Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. ... The earliest lines of Baker and its predecessors were bookcases and desks in Golden Oak, with vague Mission or Art Nouveau influences. By the 1920s bedroom and living room suites had been added to the inventory. Authentic period reproductions of Duncan Phyfe designs were made from pieces at the Metropolitan Museum of Art as early as 1923, and soon afterwards Baker became established in its niche of mahogany, walnut, and maple period reproductions from 18th-century England ... Through most of its history, Baker Furniture was controlled as a family business. Siebe Baker was a founder of Cook, Baker & Co. in 1890, and became sole owner in 1915. Upon his death in 1925, presidency fell to his son Hollis S. Baker, Sr., who expanded the company and the number of factories, and made frequent trips abroad to collect books and furniture pieces as style examples for his designers. These form the nucleus of the Baker Museum and Library for Furniture Research. Under his presidency Baker established the Millington Road Shops and later the Manor House in New York, exclusive showrooms of reproduction furniture.
