Arts and Crafts was an influential movement of the late 19th century and early 20th century which attempted to re-establish the skills of simple craftsmanship, threatened by mass production and industrialisation.
The core characteristics of the Arts and Crafts movement are a belief in craftsmanship which stresses the inherent beauty of the material, the importance of nature as inspiration, and the value of simplicity, utility, and beauty. The movement often promoted reform as part of its philosophy and advanced the idea of the designer as craftsman.
