Arts & Crafts Movement

Introduction The Arts and Crafts Movment 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 architecure, furniture, bookbinding, pottery, and textiles, as well as numerous other crafts.
