The Mission Style<br />
Originating in the 1890s, there are at least<br />
two theories to its beginnings. One links<br />
it to Spanish monks who had their parishioners<br />
build simple, sturdy furniture for their missions.<br />
Another theory claims it to be a product<br />
of the Arts and Craft movement. The durable,<br />
hand-built furniture was a major departure<br />
from the mass-produced, ornate stylings of the<br />
Industrial and Victorian eras.<br />
