Walthamstow - an area of great significance to William Morris, is an adaptation of an artwork for carpet, held at The Huntington. Its vertical border, sketched initially in graphite, contains stylised honeysuckles, which the design team have incorporated in this beautifully translated pattern, with mirroring indicative of the typical 19th-century style. Honeysuckles, daisies, and acanthus leaves all swirl together in a striking repeat, edged by a checkboard border.
The fabric has been flat-bed screen printed in their UK factory, a process that honours traditional craft skills. This technique allows for rich ink penetration into the natural fibres, resulting in a fabric with authentic marks and a deep, artisanal colour.
