Lanning Gallery is excited to present a
custom-designed line of hand-made furniture and accessories from the
unique group of American artisans called “Sticks”. Their hand-made,
hand-painted furniture and object art is developing a devoted following
across the U.S. and Lanning Gallery has worked closely with the gifted
designers at Sticks to develop a line that best reflects the ambiance of
the comfortable, yet elegant gallery. Every
one of the Sticks furniture pieces is completely handmade from start to finish:
One group of artisans hand carves and assembles each piece, another
group paints the backgrounds, another paints the details of each
intricate design. There is an individual who stitches each piece of
leather. Many of the birch and poplar logs used are actual pieces of
driftwood, found along riverbanks, which have naturally aged and dried.
All paints and finishes used by Sticks are water-based and non-toxic. |

| The origins of Sticks
furniture
dates to 1985 when founder Sarah Grant, an abstract painter
and college art instructor, was commissioned to design a
wooden nativity set. The project challenged her to translate
her talents onto a 3-D surface; etched wooden furniture from
the twenties and thirties became her inspiration. In 1991,
Better Homes and Gardens featured her start-up company,
“Origin Art Forms” which resulted in a huge influx of
orders. Grant incorporated her company as Sticks, Inc. in
1992 and their current line of furniture, trays, boxes, and
object art began to evolve. Lanning Gallery features a variety of pieces from a full
dining table with chairs to object art such as boxes, trays
and lazy-susans. Each piece of Sticks Furniture is beautiful as a functioning
piece of furniture or useful object; however, the closer you
get to each, the more details you notice. The paintings that
cover the leather and wood are alive with energy and the
rich tones and finishes invite you to welcome a Sticks
original into your home. |

"Hallelujah Lady"
The Sticks “Hallelujah Lady” is a
colorful and stylized wooden sculpture: a woman with arms flung
triumphantly overhead, a riot of copper-wire hair encircling her head;
and on this very special edition, the painted pink ribbon of breast
cancer awareness. Between now and October each purchase of this special
“Hallelujah Lady” will result in $100 being donated by Sticks to Susan
G. Komen for the Cure, the world’s largest breast cancer awareness
organization. |
|
|
|
|
| |
| Each
hand-painted "hallelujah" sculpture
currently in the gallery is approximately
36” x 23” x 15” and completely handcrafted
by Sticks. Larger sizes and custom orders
are also available. |
|
| Long known for
adorning their hand-made, hand-painted
furniture pieces with inspiring text, the
“Hallelujah Lady” is an imaginative way for
Sticks to show their support to a cause
which has touched so many lives. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Please join
Lanning Gallery
and Sticks in
standing up and
saying
“hallelujah” a
cure is on the
way.

|
“The
Hallelujah Lady
personifies the
celebration of life
and being a woman,”
says Sarah Grant,
Owner and Creative
Director of Sticks;
“I am thrilled to
support Susan G.
Komen for the Cure
as their efforts to
advance breast
cancer research,
education and
treatment, are
unparalleled.” |
