More info

Friend of William Morris, he designed tiles, glass windows and furniture for Morris & Co. from 1863 to 1872. His tiles are often based on medieval designs or Islamic motifs, produced by experimenting innovative glazes and different cooking techniques. Galleons and fish were popular motifs, as well as "fantastic" birds and other animals.
