1854 Covering Floor Garling Lino Linoleum Furniture
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the intricate design of H.B. Garling's LINO 5, a masterpiece of linoleum floor covering created for Maws & Co. in 1854. Linoleum, an innovative flooring solution made from renewable resources, was gaining popularity during this period as a practical and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional floor coverings. Garling's design for Maws & Co. reflects the artistic and technical prowess of the Victorian era. The intricate pattern, featuring geometric shapes and flowing lines, is reminiscent of the floral motifs and ornate designs prevalent in Victorian decor. The use of negative space and contrasting colors adds depth and visual interest to the design. The linoleum itself is depicted in stunning detail, revealing the meticulous process involved in its production. The image reveals the raw linseed oil base, the addition of wood flour and other natural ingredients, and the intricate embossing process that brought the design to life. This print offers a glimpse into the rich history of linoleum and its role in the evolution of interior design. The collaboration between Garling and Maws & Co. resulted in a product that was not only functional but also beautiful, reflecting the Victorian era's appreciation for both form and function. The intricate design and natural materials used in the production of LINO 5 speak to the ingenuity and creativity of the Victorian era, making this print a valuable addition to any collection of historical design and decor.
