The Roycroft Artisans' Schoolhouse Gallery is a co-op storefront where you can peruse and shop extraordinary works by juried Roycroft Artisans.
We exclusive feature the work of Roycroft Renaissance Artisans. Inspired by the Roycroft's principles, the Roycroft Renaissance was born in 1976, and a new community of independent artisans was established.
To become a Roycroft Renaissance Artisan, an artist must submit his/her work to a jury comprised of Master Artisans. Only artisans whose work exemplifies the following criteria are awarded the use of the RR mark:
1) high quality hand-craftsmanship
2) excellence in design
3) continuing artistic growth
4) originality of expression
5) professional recognition
An artisan must be juried annually, to demonstrate continued excellence and growth. After five years, if the work is voted to be exceptional, the jury may elevate him/her to Master Artisan status.
When you see the RR mark on a piece of work, be assured it was made by a juried Roycroft Artisan to the highest standards with "Head, Heart and Hand."
