William Morris & Co (Westminster) (about 1901-1958)

Stained glass firm established in Westminster, London by William Thomas Morris (1874-1944), son of Richard Morris (died about 1901). Also known as William Morris Studios, partly as a way of distinguishing the firm from the more famous Morris & Co. William Morris had worked with his father and brothers, and their firm, Morris & Sons, also continued until the 1950s. The firm became part of the Pollard Group but their premises in Rochester Row were bombed in 1941. F.W. Cole re-established the firm in 1946.
