Style note — Arts & Crafts was a major international movement in design. It started in Victorian Britain in the 1860s, and came as a reaction to the industrialisation and mass production. It was about simple and functional, high quality and skilfully produced homewares and furniture, using simple natural materials.
Facts of Lavish Cool history — British Tea was a drink prepared from elder, ash and hawthorn tree buds. In old times it was commonly sold as a fake tea, because real tea prices were very high.
