Details: Tulips frequently appearing in the Morris & Co. archive are seen in this Huntington document where leafy vines fill the ground and vertical scrollwork is interspersed with stylised flowers. Possibly the hand of John Henry Dearle identifiable through the conical stamens of the central flowerheads reminiscent of Golden Lily Wild Tulip & Vine depicts at its centre a winding runner of daffodils to anchor the design guiding the eye along a gentle rhythmic path drawing subtle parallels with Wandle. This design is beautifully reimagined in a full-coverage embroidery. Richly stitched with a subtle sheen that catches the light the embroidery is set against a pure linen ground. This natural texture enhances the elegance of the design creating a luxurious drape that feels timeless and refined.
