Description
Craftsman Gamble House Door: An H.J. Nick Design Inspired By Greene & Greene
This beautiful, custom stained glass craftsman Gamble House door is renowned artist H.J. Nick's modern interpretation of Greene & Greene's entrance door from The Gamble House in Pasadena, California. Built in original hand and craft, this is a unique, original work of art built by the hands of master craftsmen to stand the test of time. In other words, this is not a reproduction quality knock off that has been mass produced or built with substandard materials. It is a fine art quality door built with the same materials, and to the same quality standards that Greene & Greene would have used over a century ago.
To be more specific, this craftsman Gamble House door is built with solid, full length, naturally air cured American timber. Like all of our wood products, it is hand hewn with mortise and tenon joinery for construction you can count on. Furthermore, all of the custom door hardware is hand forged from solid wrought iron by classically trained blacksmiths. The stained glass is hand cut, and kiln fired by master artists. Finally, the wood is finished using a multi-step hand rubbed process that blends the finish into the grain of the wood. Put all of this together, and you have a fine art quality entrance door that is built to stand the test of time. Handmade in the USA by master craftsmen since 1913.

Greene & Greene And The Gamble House Historical Information

The Gamble House, Pasadena, California, by Charles and Henry Greene, 1908 (photo: 2005, after restoration)
The architectural firm of Greene and Greene was established in Pasadena in January 1894, eventually culminating with the designs of their "ultimate bungalows", such as the 1908 Gamble House in Pasadena, generally considered one of the finest examples of residential architecture in the United States.
Two other landmark ultimate bungalows were the Robert R. Blacker House in Pasadena and the Thorsen House. Such ultimate bungalows were completely custom affairs, where the vast majority of elements—light fixtures, furniture, even woven textiles—were created for specific spaces in the home.

More About The Signature Greene & Greene Style
The structure of the Greene & Greene house is essential not only to the immense feeling of security that such an overly-supported structure brings, but also accentuates the importance of the Arts & Crafts fundamentals in the Greene & Greene style. The visual importance of the aesthetic nature of the joints, pegs, and complex wood-work symbolizes the structure of the house, and coincides with the principles taught in the Manual Training School of their youth. The structure of the house is externalized, or exploded, rather than hidden in decoration. Each element of the structure asserts itself. This extravagance of support takes its origins from the elaborate joinery and framing of traditional Japanese architecture.
