Last year, the
Victoria and Albert Museum dug into its archives of decorative textile patterns and
published its first set of pattern books. Next week, the London museum will release the second set in the series:
V&A Pattern Series II. Like the first box set—which included four books arranged by theme and titled
William Morris,
Indian Florals,
Digital Pioneers, and
The Fifties—the second series features four books available individually or as a group:
Owen Jones,
Novelty Patterns,
Kimonos, and
Garden Florals.
