The Edwardian period was a period of British history, dating from 1901 until 1914. It is unusual as a time period, in that the king it is named for, King Edward VII, reigned from 1901, when his mother Victoria died, until his death in 1910. However, although his son became George V in 1910, many people consider Edwardian Britain to have continued until 1914, with the outbreak of the First World War.
Edwardian Britain was a period of hope, as well of luxury and excitement. Britain was leading the world in terms of industry and output. Even though there were international tensions with Germany and America, many people felt that life was looking up. Many people in Britain enjoyed a good standard of living. This was also a period of improvements for the working classes. The Liberal government Henry Campbell-Bannerman and then Herbert Asquith enjoyed its greatest electoral victory in Liberal Party history. Regardless of different political viewpoints and opinions, the majority of British people today would probably accept that some of the laws this government passed have made a large impact on modern British society. This was the government that created National Insurance, limited working hours, provided financial support for ill and disabled workers and passed legislation to protect children from domestic abuse. For many people living at the time, Edwardian Britain was a time of hope and prosperity.
This positive feeling is reflected in the architecture, including Edwardian conservatories. Modern interpretations and designs of Edwardian conservatories reflect these ideas and styles from the time. Edwardian conservatories are similar to Victorian conservatories, in that they have an open frame with large glass panels, and a sloping roof. The key difference is that the front of Edwardian conservatories is flat, without the angled shapes of Victorian conservatories. This means that Edwardian conservatories have a square shape when looked at from above. This gives them a simple shape which looks great on many modern houses. Additionally, the roofs of Edwardian conservatories tend to be a little simpler than on Victorian conservatories, although this is not always the case.
