Red Car Stripe

Adapted from the border of a carpet designed by Morris between 1881 and 1885, the Morris & Co. design studio has reworked the border as a modern, fresh stripe with a classic Arts & Crafts touch. Redcar carpet is one of the largest known surviving examples of a Morris carpet with the Hammersmith mark. Inspired by traditional Chinese examples, the scheme was originally woven with pastel colours on a camel-coloured ground.
