"The Cedar Tree", a Sanderson wallpaper, 1910. Block-printed on machine-made paper

The company was founded in 1860 in Islington, London, by Arthur Sanderson (1829–1882), who began by importing French wallpapers. After several moves, Sanderson established a factory of his own in Chiswick in 1879.[1] An extension to the old factory was designed by Charles Voysey in 1902, and is now a Grade II* listed building called Voysey House.[2] The old Chiswick factory, facing Voysey House, was gutted by fire in 1928 and is now used as offices.[1]

After Arthur Sanderson's death, the business was taken over by his three sons, John, Arthur Bengough, and Harold.[1] In 1919, Sanderson and Sons opened a new factory in Uxbridge to manufacture fabrics. In 1924, Arthur Bengough Sanderson received a Royal Warrant as "Purveyor of Wallpapers and Paints to King George V".[1]

The original blocks for William Morris's wallpaper designs were included in the purchase of Jeffrey & Co.[citation needed] When Morris & Co. was dissolved in 1940, Sanderson and Sons bought its wallpaper business and rights to use the Morris name.[1] Today, those archives are held by the parent company Sanderson Design Group, which acquired Sanderson, along with Morris & Co and other historic brands, in 2003.[3] The collection is held in Denham, Buckinghamshire, and is regularly used by the current designers, although it is not on public display.
