Description
English Arts & Crafts Furniture explores the Arts & Crafts movement through a unique perspective on furniture designs inspired by its English designers. This book delves into the history and culture surrounding the movement, examining the influences that set English Arts & Crafts designers apart from their American counterparts. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the overall Arts & Crafts movement and its influences through an in-depth examination of details and techniques, as well as three complete furniture projects that illustrate key traits representative of English Arts & Crafts. These projects showcase a Voysey chair, a hayrake table designed by Ernest Gimson, and a sideboard design from the Harris Lebus company, England's largest furniture maker at the time. Insight into the history and culture surrounding the Arts & Crafts movement, combined with practical furniture projects, makes this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Arts & Crafts furniture.
