Produced between 1925 and 1940, this exquisite piece exemplifies the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement that swept through England during the late 19th century. The intricate floral pattern featured on this cotton plain weave fabric is a testament to Morris's deep appreciation for nature. The delicate flowers elegantly intertwine with leaves, creating a harmonious composition that exudes Victorian charm. The Snakeshead design captures the essence of English countryside aesthetics while embracing an industrial era.
