Morris Owl Bangle
Description
DESIGNER'S NOTES This silver-plated bangle features an owl motif adapted from a design produced by the William Morris Company. Originally created by John Henry Dearle for an embroidered wall hanging on green silk damask, the composition celebrates the harmony of nature and craftsmanship. Acanthus leaves curl around a flowering blue tree, where an owl perches amid roses, tulips, and a hidden partridge. The embroidery, worked in vibrant silks by Mrs Battye using stem and darned stitches, reveals a dialogue between design and maker. The bangle reinterprets this intricate textile, capturing the quiet intelligence of the owl and the timeless artistry of the Arts and Crafts tradition. STYLING The bangle image is a few centimetres in diameter on an open ring. Wear with jewellery of similar scale, such as a simple silver pendant or brooch. Length: 26 mm Width: 26 mm Wipe Clean Silver Plate High Polish Shine Made in The United Kingdom
