William Morris Botanical Print Napkin Set

$60.00 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

More by William Morris across every museum store.

Our cotton napkin set features four whimsical motifs by William Morris (British, 1834–1896): Fruit (or Pomegranate ) (ca. 1866), Jasmine (1872), Strawberry Thief (design registered 1883, printed 1917–23), and Blackthorn (1892). Morris frequently looked to the English countryside for inspiration; as the Arts and Crafts movement's leading figure, he believed that beauty, order, and imagination were the necessary components of a strong design.
