Arts and Crafts

The decorating firm which later became known as Morris & Co was founded in 1861. Under the direction of William Morris it developed into a flourishing and fashionable business particularly renowned for its wallpapers and textiles.
The majority of these were designed by Morris himself, although some very fine patterns were drawn by other designers such as Morris' daughter, May, and J.H.Dearle, who became artistic director of the firm after Morris' death in 1896.
The Morris & Co patterns have their origins in the arts and crafts movement and became popular in late Victorian 'artistic homes of taste', but it is true to say that their characteristic style has never been more widely appreciated than it is today.
