- from our Affiliates
This design features a textile pattern created by British artist John Henry Dearle (1860–1932), who had a close association with William Morris and Morris & Co. Dearle's style was heavily influenced not only by Morris' own work but also by a close study of historical patterns from traditional cultures. This pattern features strong symmetrical forms similar to those seen in ancient patterns from Persia, Turkey and Italy. The original pattern was created in 1888.
