Arts and Crafts Antiques & Decorative Objects
The Arts and Crafts movement celebrated craftsmanship, natural materials and honest design. This collection explores antiques and decorative objects inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement, which emerged in the late 19th century as a response to industrialisation.
The Arts and Crafts movement began in Britain in the late 19th century and sought to restore the value of traditional craftsmanship in response to mass industrial production.
Designers associated with the movement believed objects should be carefully made, functional and rooted in natural materials. Furniture and decorative objects from the period often feature solid wood construction, simple forms and subtle decorative carving.
The movement was closely associated with designers such as William Morris, whose work helped define the visual language of Arts and Crafts design.
This collection explores decorative objects and antiques inspired by the Arts and Crafts philosophy of craftsmanship, simplicity and natural beauty.
