The Flagler Museum presents “A Spirit of Simplicity: American Arts and Crafts from the Two Red Roses Foundation,” on view through January 3. The objects in this exhibition are on loan from the Two Red Roses Foundation of Palm Harbor, Fla.

“A Spirit of Simplicity” features nearly 150 objects illustrating the range of American Arts and Crafts style, including furniture, woodblock prints, stained glass, decorative tiles, pottery and metalwork.

The most significant producers of Arts and Crafts furniture and metalware will be represented, including works by Gustav Stickley and his Craftsman Workshops, Elbert Hubbard and the Roycrofters, the Byrdcliffe Arts and Crafts Colony, Dirk van Erp, Arthur Wesley Dow and his followers, the Grueby Faience Co., Marblehead Potteries, Newcomb Pottery, Paul Revere Pottery, Rookwood Pottery and Van Briggle Pottery. A special feature of the exhibition is recreations of Arts and Crafts rooms containing works by Gustav Stickley and the Craftsman Workshops and by Charles Rohlfs.

From New York to California, and from Colorado to Louisiana, American Arts and Crafts practitioners created not only fine objects but also sought to promote a healthy and morally uplifting lifestyle. In many cases utopian communities of craftsmen sprang up, such as the Roycrofters, adopting the medieval guild as their model. Craftsmen creating such goods took pride in their work, avoiding what they saw as unfulfilling lives as drones in mechanized factories.

At right is a Marblehead Potteries vase with landscape, circa 1909‱0, designed by Annie E. Aldrich (1857‱937); executed probably by Sarah W. Tutt (1859‱947), matt glazed earthenware.

All works included in the exhibition is on loan from the Two Red Roses Foundation, a private, nonprofit educational institution that promotes understanding of the American Arts and Crafts movement through the collection, conservation, exhibition and interpretation of the decorative and fine arts. The foundation was endowed by gifts from Florida businessman Rudy Ciccarello, who has assembled one of the largest personal collections of Arts and Crafts in America.

Co-curating the exhibition are Martin Eidelberg, professor emeritus at Rutgers University, and Tracy Kamerer, chief curator at the Flagler Museum.
