Suggestions?

OP- If you had your location that might get you more help as to real furniture to view? An e.g. would be to say visit the Stickley Museum in NJ.
FWIW, there are pictures online if you get brave and actually use the web to do meaningful searches. Worrying over web searches seems to be in "worry wart land" to my thinking. As a retired educator it's hard not to feel that way. My grandkids use it everyday to learn stuff.
I called the Stickley/Craftsman Museum once several years ago toward my interest in a corner cabinet they have on display at the main house there. To my knowledge there is no measured drawing existing of that cabinet. I asked the person there if I visited would I be able to measure the piece, draw it up and give it to them for their own purposes along with my desire to replicate it. I got a hard no, you can come and look at it beyond the rope from a distance.
My perspective is that they could measure the stuff they have and sell the drawings to people like us and help pay for that place to remain open.
I made it from the web picture using osmosis or whatever it might be called. The corner cabinet was donated back to Stickley by Barbara Streisand and has a somewhat interesting story. I built my version from wormy chestnut and used antique glass in the doors salvaged from old window sashes out of Lexington, KY victorian home in the historic district. If you never cut antique glass get ready for much disappointment cause it breaks often! I went through a whole utility trailer full of old sashes to build one corner cabinet.

My wife, 2 sisters and I toured the Gamble House in early March. It was wonderful with many surprises, especially in the details. A couple of rooms had Stickley furniture. The docent was very well informed and took time with our group of about a dozen people. One recommendation is to wear dark sunglasses before entering the house so your eyes can more quickly adapt to the interior light level. Also, make sure your phone/camera is fully charged for all the photos you can take away.

You can also take a guided walking tour of the neighborhood that contains at least a half-dozen other G&G designed homes. The tickets for both tours were about $32 which is quite reasonable given that we had more than 3 hours of enjoyment. The surrounding area is also nice for a windshield tour.

One of the biggest surprises was the Gamble House backyard looks straight down on the Rose Bowl. We spent the night in Pasadena and then visited the Huntington Gardens. Lo and behold, they had G&G furniture and light fixtures on display there.
