Story Behind the Art: Originating as a protest against mass-produced, factory-made goods of the 19th century, the Arts & Crafts Movement championed traditional craftsmanship. Led by William Morris, this movement emphasized handmade textiles, furniture, and decor inspired by nature. Morris’s iconic designs introduced a fresh perspective to interior decor, weaving intricate patterns of flowers, foliage, and fruit into textiles and rugs. Today, Arts & Crafts rugs continue this legacy, featuring diverse styles such as Art Nouveau’s flowing, organic lines, Mission-style geometrics, and patterns influenced by Native American and Prairie designs. Their natural motifs and rich color palettes offer timeless versatility, making them a treasured element in both historic and contemporary homes.
