Story Behind the Art: The Arts and Crafts Movement originated in the late 19th century as a reaction against mass-produced, inferior factory-made goods. It championed craftsmanship and originality, with a focus on handcrafts over industrial manufacturing. William Morris, a major figure in the movement, emphasized the beauty of nature in home interiors through the use of intricate patterns in rugs, upholstery, furniture, and wallpaper—featuring intertwining motifs of fruit, flowers, and foliage. These motifs became emblematic of Arts and Crafts rugs, which embrace both simple and bold design themes rooted in nature. Over time, Arts and Crafts rugs have expanded to encompass a variety of styles, including Art Nouveau patterns with flowing, curvilinear lines, Mission-style designs, as well as geometric patterns influenced by Native American traditions. Today, these rugs continue to stand out for their natural motifs, interesting color palettes, and enduring charm, offering versatility for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
