William Morris Golden Lily Ceramic Coasters | 3 Colourways
Bring the wonderfully intricate beauty of Morris & Co.'s Golden Lily design to your coffee table with this handcrafted set of four ceramic coasters, individually decoupaged with its distinctive botanical pattern.
Designed by J. H. Dearle in 1899, Golden Lily is an ornate arrangement of entwining lily stems, curling tendrils and abundant flowers. Dearle had worked closely with William Morris before becoming Head Designer of Morris & Co., and Golden Lily became one of the company's most enduring and recognisable designs.
Rich in detail and full of movement, Golden Lily has all the character of the Arts & Crafts tradition, while its sweeping botanical forms reflect the growing Art Nouveau influence of the period. The design has proved remarkably timeless — even becoming part of 1960s British counterculture when George Harrison was photographed wearing Golden Lily.
Choose from three beautiful colourways — Biscuit, Slate Blue or Charcoal Grey — each giving this wonderfully detailed design a rather different character.
Perhaps Golden Lily already has a place in your home — on your wallpaper or curtains, a favourite cushion or even a much-loved China mug. Why not carry the design through to the smaller details? These handcrafted coasters are a beautiful way to complement your existing décor, elevate your coffee table and complete the look. Golden Lily remains available today as wallpaper and fabric, as well as curtains, cushions, blinds and other furnishings.
And unlike mass-produced homewares, your set will be completely individual. Each coaster is handcrafted and the placement of the Golden Lily design varies naturally, so no two sets are ever exactly alike. It’s totally unique tableware — a finishing touch you won’t find on anyone else’s coffee table.
Each heavyweight ceramic coaster is carefully handcrafted, finished with hand-painted metallic edging and fully cork-backed to protect your furniture. The surface is sealed with a durable heat and water-resistant varnish, making them practical for everyday use while protecting their carefully handcrafted finish.
Use them on a coffee table, desk or bedside table, bring them out when you're entertaining, or give them as a rather special handmade gift to any Arts & Crafts lover.

Care
To keep your handcrafted coasters looking their best, wipe away spills promptly and clean with a soft damp cloth using warm water and a little mild washing-up liquid.
Do not allow water to stand on the surface. Dry thoroughly before stacking or storing.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, furniture polishes or chemical sprays, as these may damage the protective finish over time.
