Price History
Description
This much-loved design from 1875 marked the beginning of a period in which Morris created large-scale designs for wallpaper. Printed here on a cotton/linen blend, scrolling layers of acanthus foliage create a dramatic three-dimensional effect.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this Morris & Co. cushion for its bold botanical print, which adds a touch of timeless elegance to both traditional and contemporary interiors. It works especially well in spaces with neutral tones, bringing a pop of colour and pattern without overpowering the scheme. Practical styling tips include pairing it with textured throws or layering it alongside other cushions in complementary shades to create a cosy, inviting look. It's versatile enough for sofas, armchairs, or even beds, making it a great all-rounder for adding pattern and character to a room.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
