Design Within Reach Blogs about Russel Wright

Design Notes, the Design Within Reach blog, just posted a nice piece about both the Russel Wright exhibit at the San Francisco Airport and a visit to Manitoga and the Russel Wright Center. You can read the piece, by writer Gwendolyn Horton, here.

Wright at Home: Modern Lifestyle Design 1930–1965 at the San Francisco Airport Museums continues through October 2009. Though you need to be a ticketed passenger to visit the exhibit, you can contact McKinley Williams at (510) 261.4347 or mckinley@collectmodern.com to schedule a tour or for additional information.

Cookie Jars Available... Finally!

Cookie Jars are now available for order via our online store!

Though we’ve been making them for a while, up until now, the only way to get a Cookie Jar would be to visit one our retailers, come to our Showroom Sale, or just happen to ask if we made a cookie jar. While they are still available those ways, ordering is now as simple as a few clicks.

The Bauer Cookie Jar stands 9 1/2 inches tall, 6 1/2 inches in diameter and is available in 15 colors.

Who doesn’t like cookies?
