Great stuff! But someone should tell these people a LOT has changed since 1910. There are so many styles that have emerged since then and it's good to have some variety in life. I love a solid wooden chair as much as the next guy, but sometimes you just want a lazyboy and a vibrating ottoman. I heard they are only open two days a week because they don't use cars and have to walk 35 miles to and from home. Talk about commitment!

This is a wonderful place -- an Arts & Crafts lovers dream! Beautiful original and reproduction pieces. Mary Ann and Steve are knowledgeable and friendly. I wish I could buy everything in their store!

We recently bought a 105 year old craftsman home and this is our go to place to shop. We purchased beautiful embroidered sheer panels for the windows. We found an extraordinary light fixture for the house plus several paintings. Mary Ann is great to work with and so knowledgeable. We always find something new and interesting when we shop there. Thanks to them our home is beautiful!

I have bought many beautiful pieces of Arts and Crafts furniture from Steve and Maryann over the years. Their taste and integrity are impeccable. They're the best.

Our experience with Voorhees has been delightful and is always educational. We have been to the Pasadena store only twice, but came away each time with gained knowledge of Art and Crafts furniture. Steve and Mary Ann have the store divided into antique and reproduction sections (just like their excellent website). I am a bit of an A&C novice, but after an hour or more with Mary Ann, my enthusiasm and desire to learn more has escalated. Mary Ann is incredibly generous with her time in talking with us and answering my curiosities with expert explanation. On our first visit to Steve and Mary Ann's store, among other things, my wife and I each picked out a Stickley bookcase that we favored. Instead of settling on one we bought them both and are more than happy we did. I consider this more than a good starting point to further learn about the furniture and history of Gustav Stickley and his brothers.

this place is arts & crafts heaven! not only do they have a wonderful collection of antique originals from stickleys to limberts to roycrofts, but this husband/wife duo have mastered the original art form (the whole package: impeccable design, wood selection, joinery, wood finishing, upholstery, all of it!), so when you enter the store, you cannot tell the antiques from their own creations. lots of furniture makers say things like, "making tomorrow's antiques today" but you still don't love their work like you love an antique. this is not the case with the voorhees. it is not only of the same quality as the antiques so that it will be tomorrow's heirloom antiques, but it has that same antique feel from day one. i am absolutely blown away by the craftsmanship. i don't think there are many people out there doing what they do (or, even if others try, accomplishing what they do). this stuff is amazing. and the antique selection is fantastic, and they really know their history. you can tell they are scholars of arts & crafts furniture in every way. make sure you check their hours, though. they're based out of northern california and (at least right now) they are only in this pasadena showroom fridays & saturdays. i guess they are busy at their craft the rest of the week! =)

Fantastic store / experience. Every time I visit Voorhees I see a piece of furniture I wish I could take home. Store isn't for everyone, but if you love arts and crafts and mission style furniture, I can't think of a better place to shop in LA. They have soooooooo many wonderful antique pieces as well as custom works. Plus Mary Ann and Steve are amazingly friendly and knowledgeable people. Have bought several pieces from them and will continue to do so - they're my "go to" store in LA!

I wish I could buy every piece of furniture that Voorhees sells--I obviously admire the Arts and Crafts style, which works perfectly in our 1919 Craftsman bungalow, but even more, I admire the customer service, knowledge, and fair prices offered by the owners, Mary Ann and Steve. We bought a dining room table and chairs from them, and over time hope to acquire more pieces to fill our home. We never felt pressured to buy anything, and have been back many times to peruse their offerings and just to chat with Mary Ann. She is friendly without being overhearing, and gives good advice when you can't decide exactly which piece is right. She also understands being on a budget, and can advise you on getting the most for your money. If you are looking for amazing antique furniture for your Craftsman home, look no further--Voorhees is the best. Soon you will be like me....planning and saving for when you can get afford to get your next piece!

I am a big fan of the Arts and Crafts movement. I have purchased a number of beautiful pieces from Voorhees Craftsman, including original Stickley pieces and wonderful reproductions. In my experience, the quality of their reproductions is unequalled. I can say, unequivocally, that Voorhees Craftsman has exhibited knowledge and integrity in every transaction. I look forward to buying more from them as I have complete trust in their taste, selection, and knowledge. I would recommend them highly to the serious collector or to anyone who loves beautiful furniture.

Voorhees Craftsman is a wonderful store for Arts & Crafts style furniture. Half the store is antiques and the other half is quality reproductions that they design and produce. I purchased a beautiful Stickley rocker from them. The store carries less expensive items to rare signed pieces; Stickley, Limbert, Roycroft... It's fun to stop by and see what antique treasures they have found. The owners, Mary Ann and Steve are friendly, easy to work with and knowledgeable. The store is open on Friday and Saturday, and their website has a lot of info and photos.

I can vouch for Ro Q. I also spoke with her on the phone, once it came to the actual deal, she didn't stick to her word.
