Alfred Bucknell. An Arts and Crafts Cotswold School steel ceiling candelabra, hand-formed with finely chased decoration, from Painswick House, Sapperton.
Alfred Bucknell moved to Waterlane, started his career at Sapperton with Gimson after his potential for metal working had been spotted by Alfred Powell.
From 1903, Alfred Bucknell and Gimson worked together at Sapperton making items such as furniture fittings, latches, candle sconces, firedogs, floor and table lamps, ceiling and wall lights, and ecclesiastical fittings in brass, iron, polished steel and silver.
After Gimson's death, Alfred set up independently as a wheelwright and smith at home in Waterlane and was later joined by his son Norman, who continued and built on the tradition for quality and design established by his father.
