Description
This is a pure cotton bath mat woven with a scrolling acorn and foliage design, drawn from the archive of the designer William Morris. The pattern reads as a dense scatter of oak leaves, small acorns and curling stems across a cream ground, worked in soft sage green, with a plain green border and a neat scalloped inner line framing the whole mat. It is a woven mat rather than a printed one, so the design sits in the cloth itself and the colour runs right through.
A bath mat like this belongs on the bathroom floor beside the bath or shower, where you step out onto it. The botanical pattern suits a traditional or country bathroom, and the two-tone green and cream palette sits happily against white sanitaryware, painted panelling or natural wood. Because the pattern is busy rather than plain, it hides the odd splash and footprint between washes, which is a practical point in the room that sees the most wet feet. It works as well in a family bathroom as in a guest cloakroom.
Being 100% cotton, the mat is soft underfoot and naturally absorbent, so it draws water off your feet quickly and takes a lot of everyday use. Cotton washes well and copes with the regular laundering a bathroom textile needs. The design is the same on the pattern face, which is the side you stand on. The acorn and foliage motif is a recognisable Morris design, so if you like this pattern it is worth looking across the wider Acorn range at Niori for pieces that share it. Choose the sage green here for a calm, leafy look that settles a bathroom rather than shouting in it.
