Origin of Shaker Chests
During the late 1700’s, there was a charismatic group of people who left the Quaker group. This group became known as the “Shakers” because of their ecstatic nature of worship. The Shakers stressed beliefs of simplicity, quality, and efficiency, and it showed in their furniture style. The furniture they produced was designed with straight lines, straight-forward technique, and an overall modest appearance. Although the shaker style originated hundreds of years ago, shaker furniture blends well in modern and contemporary homes today. Our wooden chests carry those simple Shaker style qualities with their raised panel construction on all four sides.
