After establishing 'The Firm's' production of wallpapers, William Morris turned his attention to the production of hand-block-printed fabrics. The earliest Morris prints were produced by the printing mill Bannister Hall, but later Morris moved to Merton Abbey and set up his own print works. In producing the Archive Prints Collection, the studio has retained the characteristics of block printing and some of the original colourations. The Collection includes original designs by Morris & Co., with new designs inspired by his woven tapestries and embroideries, painted by the current design team. View the complementary Archive Wallpapers collection. An elegant symmetrical fabric design printed on 100% cotton cloth, inspired by a collection of linens Morris first admired in the South Kensington Museum. Todays version has been printed with subtle shading to reproduce the aged patina of the original fabrics and is available in sumptuous colourways. A wonderful choice for statement furniture pieces.
