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.
