William Morris Strawberry thief design* Paste the wall application* Smooth
finish* Available in multiple colours One of William Morris's most recognisable
designs, Strawberry Thief, was inspired by the thrushes that would sneak under
the strawberry nets in his garden at Kelmscott Manor in Oxfordshire. The
original pattern, created in 1883, took several days to print, using hand-carved
woodblocks to layer the various colours. As a result, Strawberry Thief became
one of the most expensive fabrics produced by Morris & Co. Morris spent
sleepless nights at Merton Abbey awaiting the first printed piece. Today,
Strawberry Thief remains one of Morris's most iconic and beloved designs. The
Strawberry Thief mural brings a touch of nature indoors, highlighting the subtle
off-white accents in its bird and floral motifs. It is printed on a matte finish
substrate, offering a sleek and sophisticated aesthetic.
