About the Award of Distinction
In 2000, the Furniture Society’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved a proposal to create an Award of Distinction that would recognize outstanding achievement and long-standing commitment by an individual or institution to the advancement of the art of furniture making. The Award was intended to strengthen the fabric of the Furniture Society's community by naming and celebrating its aesthetic and intellectual leaders.
