The long Victorian period (1838-1901) spanned over an immensely prolific time in the history of art and design. It covers such great fashions as Gothic Revival, the Pre-Raphaelites, Aesthetic Movement, Expressionism, Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau. That was quite unlike any other period.
Facts of Lavish Care tip — avoid washing gilded and overglaze painted ceramics in a dishwasher. Tiny sand particles in water will eventually make the decoration look dull.
