This book is the most comprehensive guide to ever be published on this subject. The Roycrofters produced illustrated hand-bound books, Mission-style furniture, lamps, metal ware of black iron, copper, and bronze, as well as glass, ceramics, and leather. The furniture was mostly oak with hand-forged hinges, handles, and decorative but functional hardware. Divided into three sections, this collector's guide features not only Roycroft furniture but also books and copper and leather craft items. Hundreds of Roycroft items are illustrated that have recently been sold on the auction block, and all prices realized are given.
