Description
The original Strawberry Thief design, by William Morris, (1836 -1896) was 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 his kitchen garden of his countryside home, Kelmscott Manor, in Oxfordshire. This graceful cushion cover has been woven on a Jacquard loom by master weavers. Giving an exceptionally fine detail to the weave, a design which fits comfortably into today's interiors.
