| Object history | When this design first came into the V&A's collections it was initially attributed to Philip Webb. However, research undertaken in 2017 has led to speculation that this design could also have been produced by either Mary (May) Morris or John Henry Dearle who were both designing at Morris & Co c.1900. |
