All Manner of Workmanship (Hardcover)

The Society of the Faith was founded in 1905 to promote a catholic (and ecumenical) understanding of the Church of England. In 1916, the Society created Faith Craft, a subsidiary company dedicated to the best design in every area of church furnishing. Its products were also meant to be affordable by ordinary parishes - unlike the extravagances of craftsmen like William Burges. Faith Craft used a wide variety of designers in wood, metal, textiles, and stained glass. This work became ubiquitous in the Church of England, but has never before been chronicled. The chapters of this book grew out of a symposium sponsored by the Society of the Faith in 2013, the first ever attempt to study Faith Craft and its works. Beautifully illustrated, this book provides the first scholarly examination of Faith Craft - its work, and also its place.
