This updated design honours the traditional Persian aesthetic admired by William Morris and John Henry Dearle. A striking diagonal layout leads the eye through the piece where tulip heads are nestled within a chevron ribbon. What sets this embroidery apart is its tactility: a dissolvable foam and fabric paper is used in the stitching before overdyeing pooling colour across the cotton threads for a rich aged artisanal effect with a sculpted surface. This technique echoes the innovative spirit of Morris himself. Due to the overdye process a unique finish is created creating subtle differences from batch to batch.
