Introduction
The Arts and Crafts Movement thrived from the late 19th Century to the
beginning of the first World War. Born of a dissatisfaction with both the state
of British design and the separation of creator from craft through
industrialization, the movement encouraged individualism in design as well as
execution. The Arts and Crafts Movement enjoyed varying levels of popularity in
Britain, continental Europe and the United States, and manifested itself in architecture, furniture, bookbinding, pottery, and textiles, as well as
numerous other crafts.
