The Bromsgrove Guild of Applied Arts (1898–1966) was a company of modern artists and designers associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement, founded by Walter Gilbert. The guild worked in metal, wood, plaster, bronze, tapestry, glass and other mediums.[1]

The Guild received a Royal Warrant in 1908.[2]

The Guild's most famous works on public display are the main gates of Buckingham Palace and the Canada Gate both part of Sir Aston Webb's memorial scheme to Queen Victoria.[3]

Unlike many other Arts & Crafts companies that faded away after a few decades, for instance Morris & Co, the Bromsgrove Guild survived until after World War II.
