Morris Muse celebrates the unsung women of Arts and Crafts design. William Morris and fellows valued female associates as models, lovers, and muses—inspiration for male artistic creation. Morris’s wife, Jane Burden Morris, a classic “stunner” as the men termed the beauties, earned no fame for her talents, yet she and daughter May were artists in their own right, designing, stitching, and overseeing masterpieces of Morris needlework. Despite late-century conventions that kept them behind the screens and drapes they stitched, women in Arts and Crafts circles were true design partners. Prints in the Morris Muse collection continue innovations in natural patterns with rich reds and colour complements echoing interior fashion and the women’s personal style.
100% Cotton 112 cm / 44 inches wide
Fabric is cut in 25cm units - e.g., 4 units equals 1 metre. If more than one unit is ordered the fabric will be cut in one continuous length.
