This spring, Veedon Fleece delivered two hand knotted
runners for GF Watts’ original studio at Limnerslease House,
recently restored by the Watts Gallery in Compton, Surrey.
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 “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” Kerri Offord at The Watts
Gallery www.wattsgallery.org.uk
