We have yet to encounter a hand-knotted reproduction of William Morris’s work that matches the integrity, precision, and artistry of this piece. Faithfully crafted using traditional techniques, this rug reflects our commitment to preserving the legacy of one of the most influential designers of the Arts and Crafts movement.

Hand-knotted in high-quality wool and dyed with natural pigments, this rug is built to last for generations, developing richer character over time. It stands not only as a floor covering, but as a decorative heirloom worthy of Morris’s name.

The design centers around a striking red field, which draws the eye and creates a warm, vibrant foundation. Across this bold center bloom prominent flower heads, bursting with dynamic petals and surrounded by flowing stems in light blue and pale green. The composition exudes natural movement and organic elegance—hallmarks of Morris’s nature-inspired aesthetic.

Framing the design is a wide cream border filled with stylized light blue floral motifs, offering a soft, balanced contrast to the central red. The combination of earthy elegance and vivid detail results in a rug that feels both grounded and artistically expressive, making it ideal for refined interiors that value craftsmanship and visual impact.

This design reflects the influence of Henry Dearle, Morris’s successor and collaborator, who brought a slightly more formal tone to the later Arts and Crafts patterns—distinguished by symmetry, rhythm, and botanical refinement.
