Tree Of Life Pale - Large Tapestry

William Morris & Co - 19th Century. This graceful wall tapestry has been woven on a Jacquard loom by Master Flemish weavers. Giving an exceptionally fine detail to the weave, a design which fits comfortably into today's interiors. From an original wall hanging by William Morris 1836-1896 woven at Merton Abbey, Surrey. Despite Morris's ambitions to be a painter and his latter reputation as a writer, poet, publisher and political activist, it is as a designer that he is most widely known. His style formed a bridge between Victorian and modern composition. The emphasis of Morris's timeless style is based on individuality and handcrafted work. Key Features: Made in Britain Hand crafted tapestry Please Note: Tapestry rod not included. Fabrics by their nature are flexible, during storage, humidity and temperature may occasionally affect their shape and also cause creasing. To help a tapestry hang better we recommend using a dry iron on a 'Cotton' setting. Lightly iron the tapestry from the centre towards the edges [on the face]. In very extreme cases the Tapestry can be stretched by pulling the panel gently by hand, diagonally.
