A LENGTH OF ARTS AND CRAFTS 'ISPAHAN' PATTERN FURNISHING FABRIC, MORRIS & CO., MERTON ABBEY, CIRCA 1890 designed by John Henry Dearle (1860-1932), in woven wool of teal tones, calico backed and sewn with brass suspension rings, 210 x 126cmProvenance: Property of a European Collector (see lot 4 for further details); Christie’s, South Kensington, 29 May 1996See a length of the same fabric preserved at the Victoria and Albert Museum (No. T.111-1953), the online entry noting: ‘The perception of John Henry Dearle’s importance as a designer suffered for many years from his close association with William Morris and Morris & Co. His designs have often been wrongly attributed to Morris, in part through ignorance and in part due to deliberate deception when the firm fell on hard times. This woollen fabric, called ‘Ispahan’, was designed by Dearle, but shown as a William Morris design at the 1896 Exhibition. In fact, Dearle was responsible for designing all new textiles produced by Morris & Co from 1888. He produced 38 new repeating patterns for the loom, more than double that provided by Morris. Dearle’s traditional style, influenced not only by Morris’ own work but also by a study of historical patterns, was well suited to the technique of weaving. His patterns show strong symmetrical forms using known repeating devises of the type seen in ancient patterns from Persia, Turkey and Italy.'
