"Fullers: A Journey Through History, Nature, and Culture" Step into the world as we explore the diverse facets that bear this intriguing name. From a quaint village pub to an enchanting amphibian, from ancient crafts to modern beauty rituals, Fullers captivates us with its rich tapestry. Our journey begins at the picturesque Fullers Arms in Berwick, Sussex. This charming photograph transports us to a time when locals gathered for hearty conversations over pints of ale. The warmth exuding from this establishment is palpable even through the lens. Venturing further, we encounter the Surinam Toad or Pipa pipa - a fascinating creature known for carrying its young on its back. Just like these resilient amphibians, it has many layers waiting to be discovered. Nature unveils another surprise with Wild Teasel or Fullers Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum). Its spiky blooms have long been used by skilled craftsmen in fullonica shops to raise nap on fabrics. These teasels stand tall as symbols of an age-old trade that once thrived. Delving deeper into history's embrace, we stumble upon a statue honoring a public priestess and matron of her community. Her presence reminds us of the pivotal role women played in shaping societies throughout time – their influence akin to that which defines Fullonica. The mosaic floors found within new fullonicas transport us back centuries ago when vibrant scenes adorned these bustling workshops. One such masterpiece depicts a joyous feast day celebration where artisans took respite from their laborious tasks – reminding us that even amidst work, there is room for revelry. As our exploration continues, we encounter wild Fuller's Herb (Saponaria officinalis), also known as Soapwort - nature's gift to those seeking purity and cleanliness since ancient times. Its delicate petals hold secrets passed down through generations.
