This study is an examination of the life and work of Edward Barnsley (1900-1987), a furniture designer and craftsman, who was involved with the beginnings of the Crafts Centre and the Crafts Council of Great Britain from the 1940s to the 1960s. His father, Sidney Barnsley, directly influenced by William Morris, was one of the major figures of the movement; Edward continued his work as a furniture designer and the struggle to live as a craftsman and convince others of the value of a life making things.
