William Morris tapestries
Below is the William Morris Acanthus and Vine tapestry hanging in a bedroom of Roger and Sue in New South Wales. They wrote a Google Review: "Martin was very friendly and helpful: we were buying from Australia so wanted to be comfortable with the supplier.
Although the tapestry we ordered took longer than expected to be delivered from France to the Tapestry house, we were kept informed. As soon as it arrived in Canada it was couriered to us and arrived, well packed and documented, in about five days. The credit card was not debited until Martin had shipped the item to us.
Would undoubtedly buy from the Tapestry house again." Scroll down further for size, price and ordering information of these William Morris tapestries.
