A reproduction of a design originally woven by William Morris & Co.

This graceful wall tapestry has been woven on a Jacquard loom by master Flemish weavers. Giving an exceptionally fine detail to the weave, a design which fits comfortably into today’s interiors.

The original design by William Morris (1836-1896) was woven at Merton Abbey, Surrey. Despite Morris’ ambitions to be a painter and his later reputation as a writer, poet, publisher and political activist, it is as a designer that he is most widely known.

His style formed a bridge between Victorian and modern composition, the emphasis of Morris’ timeless style is based on individuality and handcrafted work.

Measures approx 70cm x 92cm. It has a tab on the back to hang using a pole or a rod (sold separately).
