I have included three chairs here; the first is a Victorian chair of the 1800s I found on CSUs World Images site just to demonstrate how radically different the style was from its predecessors. The second of the lighter wood is a chair that McHugh designed in San Francisco in the mid 1890s based on the California mission furniture. The third is the version of this chair by McHugh that became so popular that a full line of furniture was designed around it. (The source of the Mc Hugh chairs image is: Rodel, Kevin P., and Jonathan Binzen. Arts and Crafts Furniture: From Classic to Contemporary. Newtown: Taunton, 2003.)
Also, here is link to a PDF on the history of Arts and Crafts Furniture if you want to know more about the history.
