Morris \u0026amp; Co wove the original at Merton Abbey in Surrey, and it is now held by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The full tapestry also includes a lion, a fox, a rabbit and a raven, with John Henry Dearle adding the foreground details.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reproduction was woven in France by Goblys on a jacquard loom, the technique that allows fine, shaded detail across a whole pattern. Look closely and you can see it in the peacock's plumage, where the tail feathers are worked in green, gold and terracotta against a deep navy ground, and in the slate blue leaves that fill the space around him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cord loop at the top allows it to hang from a single nail or hook, and the tapestry is lined. The soft blues and greens sit well beside teak and other warm timbers, which makes it a natural companion for a mid century sideboard or a stairwell wall. It also suits a hallway or bedroom wall, and the muted palette works with both pale walls and dark ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a reproduction rather than an original Morris \u0026amp; Co textile, and the photos show its colour and weave in detail. Dimensions: 110 cm H x 70 cm W.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fox \u0026 Wedge Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56209426055490,"sku":null,"price":345.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9271\/8658\/files\/cprhlr_jpg_bec9a6d5-82b3-4ddd-8945-2e0186204cb5.jpg?v=1789952720","url":"https:\/\/bazaa.com.au\/products\/goblys-peacock-tapestry-after-william-morris-woven-in-france","provider":"Bazaa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
