For over 30 years The Collected Works has been committed to restoring and selling classic hand woven wicker furniture made by American manufacturers 1850-1930.  

During the 1890s, wicker manufacturers competed with each other to come up with innovative and distinctive furniture styles.   Over 100 years later those pieces have withstood the test of time.  Quality construction as well as properly proportioned designs, have left us with exquisite examples of the wicker craftsmen's artistry.  Manufacturers such as The Heywood Brothers & Wakefield Co., A.H. Ordway, Colt Willow Ware Works, Karpen, Jos. P. McHugh, Ficks Reed and Gustav Stickley, to name a few, are all known for their distinctive designs and are synonymous with quality American wicker furniture. Today these pieces are highly sought after along with skilled craftspeople to provide expert and proper restoration.

 The Collected Works runs a full service wicker repair shop.  Check out our Repair page for more information.
