Leonard Francis Wyburd (12 June 1865 - 17 January 1958) was a prominent British painter, interior and furniture designer central to the Arts & Crafts movement. At only eighteen, he became head of Liberty & Co.'s Furnishing & Decoration Studio in 1883, shaping the firm's iconic aesthetic blending oak, hammered metalwork, and medieval, Art Nouveau, and oriental influences.
His Thebes stool, Athelstan chair, and Moorish influenced pieces became Liberty classics. Wyburd left in 1903 to run his own London studio, later becoming an antique dealer. Although less celebrated than Voysey or Baillie Scott, his designs remain prized for their clean lines, craftsmanship, and stylistic innovation.
