St Editha, Tamworth, Staffordshire.
Lambert Memorial Window, 1901 - detail.
Made by Morris & Co.
Designed by Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898).
In memory of Brooke Lambert MA Vicar of this Parish 1872-1878 born 17th day of September 1834 died 5th day of January 1901.
Morris & Co (1861-1947).
The firm was set up in 1861 by William Morris (1834-1896) as Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co, originally with (among others) Edward Burne-Jones, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown and Philip Webb. From 1865 the workshops were in Bloomsbury, and when in 1875 the firm changed its name to Morris & Co, Burne-Jones became the principal designer. In 1881 the workshops moved again, to Merton Abbey. Revolutionary in its beginnings, and extremely influential in terms of design and quality, the firm finally closed in 1947.
