Historical context | These samples are from the Kelmscott range by Osborne & Little, who are part of the Liberty Textiles Group. The design has been reproduced from a hand-knotted carpet design called McCulloch by William Morris. Reproductions of Morris textile designs have been taking place since the 1950s, and these are recent examples of this trend. |
