1839-1917. English pottery designer. He set
up his own factory 1888 in Fulham, London,
producing tiles and pottery painted with
flora and fauna in a style typical of the
Arts and Crafts Movement. Inspired by William
Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, he started
designing tiles and glass for Morris's Merton
Abbey factory. Influenced by Persian and
Italian styles - he spent many months in
Italy in later years - he also developed
lustre techniques (a way of covering pottery
with an iridescent metallic surface).
