Shaker objects are noted for their shapely simplicity, beautiful craftsmanship, and precise efficiency. In design, their furnishings are free of the unnecessary, but full of joy.

A limited colour palette of sky blue, ocher yellow, barn red, & grass green and materials such as wood, fabric, tin and willow make the “shaker style “ instantly recognizable.

The Shakers believed that every object in the home should have a function. 'Whatever is fashioned, let it be plain and simple and for the good' and 'Beauty rests on utility' are two of their favorite sayings. But because they also believed that the quality of their work was a testament to God, each item they made was painstakingly honed to perfection.
