===Art and Craft=== [[Ceramics]] and weaving in Fulham go back to at least the 17th century, most notably with the [[Fulham Pottery]], followed by the establishment of tapestry and carpet production with a branch of the French 'Gobelins manufactory' and then the short-lived [[Pierre Parisot|Parisot]] weaving school venture in the 1750s. [[William De Morgan]], ceramicist and novelist, moved into Sands End with his painter wife, [[Evelyn De Morgan]], where they lived and worked. Another artist couple, also members of the [[Arts and Crafts movement]], lived at 'the Grange' in [[North End, Fulham|North End]], [[Georgiana Burne-Jones]] and her husband, [[Edward Burne-Jones]], both couples were friends of [[William Morris]]. Other artists who settled along the [[Lillie Road]], were [[Francesco Bartolozzi]], a florentine engraver and [[Benjamin Rawlinson Faulkner]], a society portrait painter. [[Henri Gaudier-Brzeska]], the French expressionist painter and friend of [[Ezra Pound]], lived in [[Walham Green]] till his early death in 1915. Glass production was, until recently, represented by the [[stained glass]] studio of the purpose-built and [[Grade II listed]] [[The Glass House, Fulham|Glass House]] in Lettice Street and latterly, by the Aaronson Noon Studio, with the 'Zest' Gallery in Rickett Street, that was obliged to shut down in 2012, after 20 years by the developers of 'Lillie Square' and [[Earl's Court]]. Both glass businesses have now moved out of London.<ref>Cherry, Bridget and Nikolaus Pevsner "The Buildings of England.
