This book provides the best study of Art and Crafts style jewelry
and metalwork to date. Devised late in the 19th century as a
reaction to industrialized manufacturing, the Arts and Crafts
movement stressed naturalistic materials, designs and techniques.
The book begins with the British movement and traces the roots of
this "new art" including its characteristics, materials, motifs,
influences and makers' marks. Biographical sketches are provided
for over 240 of the most influential British
designers/jewelers/metalworkers, with discussions of the guilds,
schools and commercial firms. In over 700 photographs, nearly 400
in glorious color, the success of these designs to provide
fascinating and beautiful objects is demonstrated.
