Answer 1

The Arts and Crafts movement began in Britain in the late 19th century and soon spread to other parts of Europe and to North America. It was found across many applied and decorative arts, including architecture, furniture and interior design, textiles, ceramics, metalwork, stained glass, and book and graphic design. The movement emphasized high-quality craftsmanship, the value of hand-made work and honest materials, simplicity of form, and a rejection of mass-produced industrial ornamentation in favor of functional beauty.
