EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures a collection of Shaker pegs from the 1930s, showcasing their various sizes and designs. These wooden pegs were used at the Hancock Shaker village near Pittsfield, Massachusetts, serving as essential tools in the daily lives of the Shaker community. The image was beautifully captured by Samuel Kravitt between 1931 and 1936. Shaker pegs hold great significance within Christian Protestantism, particularly among the Shakers who believed in simplicity and utility. These humble artifacts embody both functionality and design aesthetics that epitomize early American craftsmanship. The photograph transports us back to a time when these simple yet elegant pegs played an integral role in organizing spaces within the Hancock Shaker village. They served as hooks for hanging clothing, utensils, or even chairs on walls – maximizing space while maintaining orderliness. Samuel Kravitt's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only their practicality but also their visual appeal. Each peg is meticulously crafted with precision and care, reflecting the dedication of its maker. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how everyday objects can carry profound cultural significance.
