William Morris preferred tapestries and wallhangings, but their cost put them out of reach of most people. Morris & Co. began to produce wallpapers. Artichoke wallpaper was produced around the same time, and while it shows some meandering foliage design that Morris loved, it has millefleur details that are characteristic of John Henry Dearle and, like most designs for wallpaper produced by Morris & Co. is registered under his name.
The accent tile is only seamless on the vertical. For the backsplash, two tiles, one with the pattern reversed, are placed side-by-side to make them appear seamless on the horizontal.
