Christopher Dresser (1834-1904), was one of the most influential designers of his time. A contemporary of William Morris, he was Britain's first independent industrial designer, pioneering a new modern style and creating beautiful objects for an emerging consumer culture. Dresser was influenced by art and design from Japan, Egypt and Asia.
