Snakeshead, Early 20th century. Creator: William Morris (British, 1834-1896)
Snakeshead, Early 20th century. When Morris designed Snakeshead in 1877, Indian silks were in style and widely imported from British India. This design stands out for its diminutive motifs and the strong red and black colours, which were fashionable only for a short time before paler hues regained favor with clients. While its colour scheme suggests distant lands with warmer climates, the pattern showcases one of Morriss favorite flowers: the fritillary, a wildflower that he remembered growing in the meadows near Oxford
