Label inside "This bookcase was designed and made in 1937 by: William Stevens, of Bussage, Glos.. He was an Artist/Craftsman , pupil of PETER WAALS, Chalfont.
Peter Waals (1870-1937) was born in Holland and spent there years working in Brussels, Berlin and Vienna before moving to England in 1901 where he began working for Ernest Gimson at Sapperton in the Cotswolds. The furniture and craft work produced by the workshop under the day-to-day supervision of Waals is regarded as a supreme achievement of the Arts
Crafts Movement.
Waals took over the workshop in 1919, following Gimson’s death but within a year he established his own workshops in a more practical location at Chalford closer to rail and road networks. Waals employed many of Gibsons’s skilled craftsmen, including Norman Jewson. From 1920 - 1937 the workshops were renowned for producing high quality furniture.
