Description
This decorative tapestry wall hanging is inspired by the iconic “Tree of Life” pattern originally produced by Morris & Co. around 1910, reflecting the artistic vision of designer William Morris (1834–1896). The composition features an ornate central tree filled with delicate leaves, blossoms, and tiny perched birds set against a richly detailed millefleur (thousand-flower) background, framed by a wide floral border. The color palette blends deep blues and greens with warm accents of red, peach, and ivory. Symbolically, the Tree of Life motif represents growth, continuity, and the connection between the natural and spiritual worlds—an enduring theme in Morris’s celebrated textile designs. Measures approximately 72" L x 49.5" W, with decorative rod 53.5" L. Presented in good condition, this tapestry offers classic craftsmanship and historic design influence in a ready-to-hang decorative textile.
