Arts and Crafts Gallery

The Arts and Crafts Gallery. An illustrated selection of arts and crafts wares.

An arts and crafts gallery providing a brief look at the exceptional quality and superb design available to the arts and crafts collector.

The arts and crafts designers rejected the banality and inferior quality of industrially produced decorative arts by promoting a return to a handcrafted medieval style craftsmanship.

This can be seen in works by artists such as William Morris, William de Morgan, Gustav Stickley, Charles Ashbee and Charles Voysey.

Typical motifs come from traditional techniques with slat back chairs, leather upholstery, turned feet, rush seating, enamelling, thick ceramic glazes and hand hammered metalwork.
