Faith Craft Artists and Designers
You are here Home – Faith Craft– Faith Craft Artists and Designers
Faith Craft in- house artists and designers before the Second World War were:
- William Lawson (Managing Director and chief designer) (William Lawson obituary in The Symbol),
- William Wheeler (Art Director of Faith Craft)
- Ian Howgate
After the war the Faith Craft in-house artists and designers were principally:
- George Baden Beadle
- Terence Randall
- Francis Stephens
- John Hayward
- John Lawson(Obituaries in the Daily Telegraph and The Guardian),
Other craftsmen also involved in some way with Faith Craft include Siegfried Pietsch who was a carver and decorator, Gordon Benningfield was a craftsman who painted windows at Faith Craft, Martin Travers, Laurence King and John Crawford.
Many of these artists worked for other organisations or to commission, and a work by them is not automatically also a Faith Craft Works product.
A useful website is Sussex Parish Churches which has a useful index of artists, including some who worked for Faith Craft.
