Description: This tapestry was originally designed and woven by William Morris in 1879, and was the first tapestry he produced, being … more This tapestry was originally designed and woven by William Morris in 1879, and was the first tapestry he produced, being made entirely by himself. From studying an old French Arts and Crafts manual, Morris taught himself the technique of weaving, and spent many hours weaving this first experimental tapestry by hand in his bedroom at Kelmscott House in Hammersmith, London. Morris thereafter taught his workmen the technique, and is thereby attributed with reviving the craft of tapestry-weaving in England during the last quarter of the 19th century. William Morris (1834-1896) is well-known as the founder of the firm of Morris & Company, whose workshops became established at Merton Abbey in Surrey. The original tapestry may be seen at Kelmscott Manor in Oxfordshire, the one-time family home of Morris.
This beautiful tapestry is woven on a jacquard loom by skilled weavers, keeping alive the centuries old tradition of tapestry manufacturing from generation to generation. This tapestry is fully lined incorporating a sleeve along the top for hanging with a Hines hanging rod. Alternatively, this tapestry can be hung with a wooden batten which is a concealed method of hanging.
Composition: 95% cotton, 5% polyester
Finish on reverse: This tapestry is fully backed with luxury cotton lining incorporating a sleeve along the top for hanging purposes. See Hanging Options below for more information. less
