Liberty and Co (Attributed) – Arts and Crafts Oak Three-Tier Side Table
£2,200
Side table in oak, attributed to Liberty and Co, from the Arts and Crafts Movement (1880–1920), c.1910. The design has three rectangular tiers supported by angled uprights that form open triangular frames on each side. The structure is light yet stable, with precise joinery and a balanced geometric composition. Its simplicity of line and measured proportion reflect Liberty and Co’s late workshop designs.
Founded in London in 1875, Liberty and Co advanced Arts and Crafts principles through accessible, well-crafted furniture. This example demonstrates the firm’s focus on structure and craftsmanship rather than surface decoration, expressing the movement’s belief that beauty derives from sound design and the integrity of materials.
