Lighting

We will be adding a wide range of lighting in the coming months, covering the Victorian, Arts & Crafts, Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods.

W.A.S.Benson was the most important designer of lighting for William Morris and within the arts and crafts movement in general. His enormous range of designs covered all aspects of lighting from candlesticks to chandeliers. It is our intention to develop a small portfolio of his historic designs over the coming months.

We will soon be stocking candlestick designs based on those of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and a classic table lamp based on a Pugin design. Many more candlesticks can be found in the tableware section of this site.

The Benson Lamp Collection

William Arthur Smith Benson, 1854 - 1924
Educated at Winchester and Oxford, Benson served his articles in the office of Basil Champneys and remained in the practice until 1880. He had met with Morris through his friendship with Edward Burne-Jones, and was inspired to set up a metalworking workshop in that year. He expanded into a well-equipped factory in Hammersmith and from 1887 had a retail shop in Bond Street. In 1896 he became chairman of Morris & Co., for which he designed furniture. He also worked for J.S.Henry and the Coalbrookdale and Falkirk iron foundries. Benson's simple well designed and utilitarian copper and brass tablewares, jugs and lighting equipment were praised by H. Muthesius. Bing chose his work for exhibition and sale at his Paris gallery, Maison de L'Art Nouveau. Benson was an active member of the Art Workers' Guild and in 1914 founder of the Design and Industries Association. He retired and the firm was bought by Allen-Liversedge Ltd, a lighting company, in 1920.

The hand made glass shades are available priced £50.00 each. We also keep a small selection of antique original shades, please email for details theartsandcraftshome@gmail.com
