EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the intricate design of H.B. Garling's LINO 2, a linoleum floor covering created for Maws & Co. in 1854. Linoleum, an early alternative to traditional floor coverings like wood and carpet, was a groundbreaking invention that combined the durability of linseed oil and the beauty of natural materials. The design, aptly named LINO 2, features a geometric pattern of interlocking shapes and lines, reminiscent of Victorian-era decorative arts. The intricate detailing and precise execution of the pattern demonstrate the skill and craftsmanship of the artisans who produced these linoleum coverings. Maws & Co., a leading manufacturer of linoleum in the mid-19th century, was at the forefront of this innovative industry. Their collaboration with designers like H.B. Garling allowed them to offer a diverse range of designs, catering to various tastes and styles. The LINO 2 design is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the Victorian era. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate audiences today, making it an essential piece of design history. This photograph provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of Victorian-era design and the emergence of linoleum as a popular floor covering option. This image, with its rich history and intricate detail, is a must-have for anyone interested in design, furniture, or the history of home decor. The LINO 2 design is not only a beautiful addition to any space but also a conversation starter, inviting viewers to learn more about the fascinating history of linoleum and its role in shaping the interiors of the Victorian era.
