This Spring, Veedon Fleece delivered two hand knotted
runners for G F Watts' original studio at Limnerslease House, recently restored
by the Watts Gallery in
An interesting design brief led to the recreation of two Mughul Indian inspired designs, one designed as a complete runner, the other as if it had been formed as a fragment from a larger 17th Century carpet.
The strict arrangement of the new studio gallery meant that the carpets had to complement and then follow the original interior plan.
The interesting point is to see how the carefully coloured and proportionally designed runners mellow along with the interior over the next 100 years.
We are delighted with the initial response from the gallery says Kerri Offord at the Watts Gallery "All our volunteers and so many of our visitors have been really impressed by them. We’ve even had a couple of instances when visitors have thought they are original and been reluctant to stand on them, so a complete success”.
