The Trust was established in 1990 to collect and care for the work of artists, architects, designers and craftspeople working in the north Cotswolds since about 1900 to foster the appreciation of these people and their work and to encourage craft and design work of good quality in the present day. More than a hundred years later, the Guild of Handicraft Trust has adapted the motif as its logo, acknowledging the importance of Ashbee and the Guild of Handicraft in the story of twentieth-century craft and design in the north Cotswolds.
It was used on their metalwork, their printing and even on their football shirts. Ashbee, seeing a mass of pinks growing outside the workshops of his Guild of Handicraft in East London, chose the flower as the emblem of his Guild. The Trust created Court Barn Museum in 2006-2007 with generous financial help from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Court Barn Museum is a project of the Guild of Handicraft Trust.
