Windrush Pattern (by William Morris) Neck Tie

This design is based on a fabric pattern created by British designer William Morris (1834–1896), who helped to found the Arts and Crafts Movement. This pattern is known as Windrush, and it was based on artwork created by William Morris' daughter, May Morris. It was originally block printed by hand at Merton Abbey using natural dyes. The pattern is named Windrush after the river that runs through the Cotswolds in central England. It is a beautiful floral pattern and the long stems of the plants weave through the design like a river in a landscape.
