The Arts and Crafts movement, emerging in the late 19th century, emphasised handcrafted quality and design integrity in response to industrialisation. Rooted in Britain, it championed traditional craftsmanship, natural materials, and simple forms. The movement, led by figures like William Morris, sought to revive artisanal techniques and promote decorative arts as a means of personal expression. It significantly influenced architecture, furniture, and decorative arts, advocating for a return to authentic, well-crafted objects that reflected honesty and functionality.
