Wild Tulip Pattern (by William Morris) Ceramic Tile

This design is based on a wallpaper pattern created by British designer William Morris (1834–1896), who is especially well known and respected for his association with the Arts and Crafts Movement. It is an elegant floral pattern featuring tulip flowers and foliage, as well as diagonally running stems of larger flowers and leaves. The distinctive red background makes the flowers appear all the more appealing. The original pattern was first created by Morris & Co. in 1884.
