Strawberry Thief

Designed by William Morris in 1883. On the selvedge of another piece recently sold it had Morris & Company, 449 Oxford Street, London , W for textiles printed between 1877-1917. Although this piece is just a strip and you can only see the breasts and legs of the birds, the colours and foliage are wonderful. This would look really good mounted and hung. We can do this for you.
