William Morris Strawberry Thief Wall Tapestry

Warm detail around Morris Strawberry Thief popular textile pattern settles nicely in an entryway, woven in North Carolina, USA.

Strawberry Thief is one of William Morris' most popular repeating designs for textiles. It takes as its subject the Thrushes that Morris found stealing fruit in his kitchen garden of his countryside home, Kelmscott Manor, in Oxfordshire. To print the pattern Morris used the ancient and painstaking indigo-discharge method he admired above all forms of printing. We have woven the artwork into a colorful wall tapestry.
