William Morris At Home Spring Thicket Super King Duvet Set - Mineral, Cotton

The William Morris At Home Spring Thicket duvet set features the 1893 archive design by John Henry Dearle, recoloured in rich shades of teal, mineral, pink, and soft yellow on a 250 thread count cotton sateen base. Its symmetrical net repeat pattern centres on a large tulip clump framed by foliage, with flowering hawthorn uniting the overall composition. The pillowcases and duvet cover are finished with a blush pink Baratta stitch detail, while the reverse carries Morris' Borage design in a complementary soft yellow shade. The set is fully reversible, offering two distinct pattern options within a single bed set.

Originally designed as a wallpaper by William Morris' chief designer John Henry Dearle in 1893 and housed in the William Morris Gallery archive, the Spring Thicket design follows the same conventions as William Morris' wallpaper ‘Lily and Pomegranate', designed in 1886. Both patterns follow a symmetrical net repeat, with a large central clump of tulips against a background of foliage. The flowering hawthorn in this design unites the overall pattern. Recoloured for bedding in rich shades of teal, mineral, pink and soft yellows and printed onto a luxurious 250 thread count cotton sateen base, this reversible bed-set is finished beautifully with a blush pink Baratta stitch detail on the pillowcases and duvet cover. Morris' Borage design features on the reverse in a complementary soft yellow shade; the William Morris Gallery archive includes a fragment of the printed cotton by the firm Wardle and Co.
