New lines arriving in Spring 2008!
Marshall B. Lloyd
was world famous for his fine hand woven wicker furniture and baby
buggies made in Menominee, Michigan since 1906. In 1917 he patented
a revolutionary new process for the manufacture of wicker. Wicker
fabric was woven from a twisted fiber made of kraft paper.This woven wicker was the simple beginning of a brand new category of exceptional quality, innovative furniture that could be mass-produced. He called it Lloyd® Loom.
Between 1920 and 1940, Mr. Lloyd produced many new, unique furniture designs — from large settees to small wastepaper baskets — that furnished residential homes as well as commercial properties.
Lloyd®/Flanders has since adapted many of the early designs for presentations in current wicker collections. Original designs using the Lloyd® Loom wicker fabric range from traditional to contemporary ... for use indoors or outdoors in casual settings.
Lloyd® Loom products have been enjoyed at Buckingham Palace, the U.S. Open, Wimbledon, on the London Northeast Railway and other notable places around the world.
