About Antique Mission Oak Chairs

The mission oak style became popular in the early 1900s as part of the American Arts and Crafts movement. Some of the most famous American chair designs emerged from this period, for example those by leading Arts and Crafts designer Gustav Stickley. Hallmarks of this style include simple, linear designs, natural (canvas and leather) upholstery, exposed joinery, and varnished (but unpainted) wood.
