The Arts and Crafts Movement, a fascinating period in American
decorative history, led to the unprecedented commercialization of
fine crafts and the empowerment of thousands of women and
immigrants, who began to pursue new careers in design and
handicraft. In 1893, the World's Fair in Chicago heralded the
egalitarian art movement in America that led to the establishment
of a plethora of metalwork and jewelry companies and studios by the
turn of the century. Darcy Evon documents how these new trends
spread throughout the Midwest and eventually the country, led by
innovative pioneers who inspired an entire nation. They designed
exquisite, original pieces of metalwork and jewelry by hand,
starting with basic raw materials. Dozens of previously
unidentified shops, artists, their creations, and accurate
information on well-known historical figures, are featured for the
first time in this important, major publication. Organized by trade
name and location, this book is for collectors, dealers, and art
historians, as well as artisans.
