Archives
Accounts, letters, diaries, photographs, working notes...
The archives held at the Crafts Study Centre support an understanding of the objects in the collections. They include the personal records of individual makers and corporate records of craft businesses, selling galleries, and guilds. Archival material includes letters, diaries, sketch books, catalogues and photographs. The archives also contain the Centre’s own papers.
