Aubrey Beardsley (1872–1898) is an interesting artist who died from tuberculosis when he was aged only 26 years old. In his short life, Beardsley made a big contribution to Aesthetic Movement, which grew out of the work of William Morris and the PreRahaelites. When Beardsley was 16, he started work in an architects’ office but, three years later, he visited Edward Burne Jones’ studio in London and Burne Jones encouraged Beardsley to take up formal art training, which Beardsley did the following year.

Our William Morris florals Daisy and Willow Bough Green expertly modelled by Bertie during his weekend away to the beautiful @castle_howard - he enjoyed wearing a floral cravatte and bow tie pretending to be a Bridgerton (the bow tie did indeed end up being a bow on the top of his head after one too many sniffs 😂🎀)

Did you know that in Japan where our projects are sold, our tea towels are used not only for being functional but for decoration - we love that they’re framed, or laid on the table as a centrepiece to be admired or hung as a draped item to bring some nature indoors 🌿 we thought we’d do the same by using the tea towel as a centrepiece for a simple cup of tea and very delicious piece of cake! 🍰
