About 'The Brook - Indigo' design:

The Brook is one of John Henry Dearle’s most beloved designs for Morris & Co., first introduced in 1917. Inspired by medieval tapestries and pastoral scenes, the pattern captures a gentle, dreamlike landscape where animals pause by winding streams and flowering meadows. Its rich tones and intricate detailing reflect the enduring Arts & Crafts ethos championed by William Morris — celebrating nature, craftsmanship and beauty in everyday surroundings. The Brook – Indigo offers a striking yet serene focal point, ideal for bringing a touch of historic charm to modern interiors.
