All the main protagonists of the Movement are covered. Unique illustrations show examples of museum quality, the typical production of the Guilds, the Cotswold School, the Glasgow designers, Heal, Liberty and the major commercial companies including Gordon Russell. The principal American followers of the Movement are included. The Arts and Crafts Movement, admired internationally, permanently changed the way designers think about furniture. This is a record of its output. Each section of this comprehensive book details furniture of the architects and designers involved. Many of the pictures, mainly from a useful list of pioneering specialist dealers, have never been published before.
