About this Fabric
Cotton-linen blend
Designed in London, England
Printed in Lancaster, England

Adapted from the border of a carpet designed by Morris between 1881 and 1885 the Morris & Co. design studio has reworked the border as a modern fresh stripe with a classic Arts & Crafts touch. Redcar carpet is one of the largest known surviving examples of a Morris carpet with the Hammersmith mark. Inspired by traditional Chinese examples the scheme was originally woven with pastel colours on a camel-coloured ground.
