This is a catalog of Lifetime furniture, which was manufactured
by the Grand Rapids Bookcase and Chair Company of Hastings,
Michigan. The Cloister Styles shown here were created
by the company in 1911. This catalog shows the quintessential
heavy, massive, masculine style of mission furniture that
was so popular a century ago. Even though some of the
forms are similar to designs of Gustav Stickley and L. & J.G.
Stickley, there are a number of original designs that
distinguish this company as one of the major actors in
the American Arts and Crafts Movement.
