Description

The original design by William Morris 1836 -1896  woven at Merton Abbey, Surrey. Despite Morris's ambitions to be a painter & his latter reputation as a writer, poet, publisher & political activist, it is as a designer that he is most widely known. His style formed a bridge between Victorian & modern composition, the emphasis of Morris' timeless style is based on individuality & handcrafted work. Strawberry Thief is one of William Morris's most popular repeating designs for textiles. It takes as its subject the thrushes that Morris found stealing fruit in the kitchen garden of his countryside home, Kelmscott Manor, in Oxfordshire. This graceful wall tapestry has been woven on a Jacquard loom by Master weavers. Giving an exceptionally fine detail to the weave, a design that fits comfortably into today's interiors.


Tapestry composition 80% cotton 20% viscose woven on a Jacquard loom by Master weavers.


Small Tapestry rod required.
