Amish FurnitureThe Amish were originally members of the religious sect known as the Mennonites who were followers of the Swiss spiritual leader, Jakob Amman. The Amish broke away from the Mennonites and many of them emigrated to America where they established small communities in Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Missouri and especially Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. These Amish enclaves still exist today and the Amish live as they have for generations, wearing traditional clothing, doing all work by hand and riding in buggies instead of in cars. The Amish are known throughout the world as master furniture craftsman because of their time honored techniques passed on from generation to generation and the time and care with which they produce their legendary Amish furniture. There is a big market for Amish furniture, but the genuine articles, of course, are not mass produces, which means you will pay a good price for real Amish furniture. However, the reputation Amish furniture has is not undeserved and a hand made Amish desk or table is not just a piece of furniture, but an investment and an heirloom that will be passed from generation to generation. There are many Amish furniture stores in the Midwest geared toward tourists. Make sure to establish whether what you are buying is Amish furniture made by actual Amish craftsman or Amish “style” furniture; the difference in price and quality should be substantial. Stay away from the more tourist driven Amish furniture stores, since they tend to charge higher prices. It is worth taking the time to investigate the best place in your area to buy genuine Amish furniture which certainly will not come cheap, but will be well worth every dollar spent. Amish furniture can blend well with almost any style, since the simple, unadorned appearance of the furniture does not class with other styles. Start with a few Amish furniture pieces and gradually collect more until you have a dining room or office filled with Amish furniture. |
