Price History
Description
Designed by Morris in 1876, Pimpernel is one of Morris’ greatest designs. With its mirrored symmetry and curling stems circling wind-swept flowers, this glorious rug retains all the detail of the original Morris design whilst at the same time creating a totally different look. The design has been enlarged in scale and repainted in soft watercolour tones. The playful, intertwining design inspired by nature runs throughout this wool-rich, hand-tufted rug which has an intricate multi-dimensional look and feel. About your new rug We recommend. It prevents your rug from moving underfoot and protects against colour transfer to the floor Shedding is a natural characteristic of wool particularly on new rugs. This will reduce over time and will not affect your rug's performance. Vacuum clean regularly to reduce the shedding. When vacuuming your rug, use suction only. Rotating brushes may damage the fibres Blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub or use harsh detergents. Latex backed therefore not suitable for underfloor heating. Specialist cleaning recommended.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Morris & Co. Pimpernel Rug for its timeless, intricate pattern that adds character without overwhelming a space. It's particularly versatile, working well in traditional or vintage-inspired interiors, but can also serve as a striking contrast in more modern settings. When styling, consider pairing it with neutral or muted furnishings to let the rug's detailed design stand out, or combine it with antique or botanical accessories for a cohesive look. Practically, it’s ideal for living rooms or bedrooms where you want to introduce warmth and pattern without a heavy footprint-just ensure your flooring underneath is even to keep the rug looking its best.

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.
