William De Morgan

About the Author

William De Morgan (1839–1917) was an English potter and tile designer. One of the most important ceramic designers of his era, he was best known for his inventiveness. He took up writing after his pottery business went bankrupt, becoming more famous than he ever was for his art. His first novel, Joseph Vance, was an international success.
