Description
Immersed in the timeless allure of Kelmscott Manor, William Morris found endless inspiration. From the enchanting gardens and rustic barns to the quiet dovecote, meadows, and meandering stream, he drew from these surroundings to create enduring designs. Volume I of Kelmscott Gardens brings together Morris’ iconic designs, including Strawberry Thief, Marigold, Larkspur and Pimpernel. Vibrant cotton prints complement the intricate decorative jacquards and textured embroideries. The opulent printed velvets offer an elegant upholstery option, perfectly complementing this curated collection. The colour palette pays homage to the natural dyes used in the original textiles and wallpapers found in the William Morris Gallery archives. Some colours take on a modern twist, while others draw inspiration from the originals.
