New Sticks Collection Arrives at Smith Galleries
Posted by Wally Smith on
Some artwork hangs on a wall. Some artwork becomes part of daily life.
That philosophy lies at the heart of Sticks Handmade, the celebrated Des Moines, Iowa studio whose newest collection has just arrived at Smith Galleries.
Founded in 1992 by artist Sarah Grant, Sticks has earned national recognition for creating handcrafted furniture and home accessories that blur the line between fine art and functional design. What began with smaller decorative objects has grown into an extraordinary studio producing everything from clocks and mirrors to furniture and custom installations.
What makes Sticks unique is its ability to tell stories through wood. Each piece is individually crafted and decorated with whimsical imagery, carved contours, vibrant colors, and thoughtful messages. Nature, family, friendship, travel, home, and everyday gratitude often appear as recurring themes.
Our newest shipment includes an exceptional variety of lazy susans, mirrors, clocks, and plaques. Whether you're searching for a distinctive accent piece, a meaningful gift, or an heirloom-quality work of art, these handcrafted designs offer both beauty and personality.
In a world of mass production, Sticks continues to celebrate craftsmanship, creativity, and individuality. Every piece carries the touch of the artist and the spirit of a studio that has spent more than three decades creating art that people can live with and enjoy every day.
We invite you to watch our latest video and experience the newest Sticks collection now available at Smith Galleries.
