The Cult of Beauty

Here are a few knick-knacks you can purchase in celebration of the V & A exhibit, "The Cult of Beauty" which explores the Aesthetic movement of 1860-1900. Designers like William Morris and Liberty London were a huge influence on the movement and continue to influence surface design today. Here are a few of our favorite things from the V & A Gift Shop:

1. Blue Flower Gloves

2. V & A Arbutus Umbrella inspired by William Morris

3. Audrey Beardsley A3 notebook

4. Wooden Print Blocks

5. William Morris Wallpaper Coasters
