Prairie Chair
Best timeless design for those seeking lasting quality.
Embodying the Mission sensibility, the Prairie Settle is based on an iconic 1910 L. & J. G. Stickley design. Crafted from solid oak, it features dramatic book-matched panels along the sides and back, complemented by elongated corbeled arches supporting generous wraparound arms. This deeply comfortable settle is part of the original 1989 Mission Collection reissue and includes two 20-inch throw pillows. Its construction showcases time-honored techniques designed to last for generations, using honest materials and hand-applied finishes that highlight the wood's natural beauty. Approximately 90% of Stickley furniture is manufactured in the USA.
