Arts & Crafts Donegal Light Blue Wool Rug Attributed to Gavin Morton, circa 1910

About the Item

The Donegal carpet factory was responsible for the weaving of the most significant hand-knotted carpets of the Arts & Crafts period. Guided initially by British architect-designers such as C.F.A. Voysey and Charles Mackintosh, at the turn of the century it was taken over by the Morton brothers, who in collaboration with Voysey produced some of the greatest masterpieces of the period. This rug exemplifies the Arts & Crafts style, which focused on vernacular architecture and design with a penchant for impeccably executed floral patterns.
