Description: Offering a pair of framed William De Morgan prints I purchased at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London in 1988. Based on two of De Morgan’s tiles, they are ”Rabbits in a Vine” and “Bear in a Tree.” Matching gold frames, 9 1/2 inches square. Framed by Beaver Lodge Prints, Great Bardfield, Essex, England. William De Morgan (16 November 1839 – 15 January 1917) was an English potter, tile designer and novelist. A lifelong friend of William Morris, he designed tiles, stained glass and furniture for Morris & Co. from 1863 to 1872. His tiles often recall medieval or Islamic design patterns. He applied innovative glazes and firing techniques. Galleons and fish were common motifs, as were "fantastical" birds and animals. Many of De Morgan's tiles were designed to create intricate patterns when several were laid together. Both prints are in excellent condition and ready to hang.
