The design features stylized peacocks and dragons set against a background of intertwined foliage, showcasing Morris's signature Arts and Crafts aesthetic. The fabric's rich colors and intricate details highlight the beauty of nature, a hallmark of Morris's work. His designs were a rebellion against the mass-produced, industrial aesthetic of the time, advocating for handmade craftsmanship and natural motifs.
