Pimpernel Strawberry Thief sandwich tray, Brown Clearance

The Strawberry Thief sandwich tray from Pimpernel makes it easy and immensely satisfying to enjoy a luxurious breakfast in bed. The tray is a practical fun and practical accessory but also carries a great deal of depth with its colourful and intricate design that renders it a beautiful decorative detail in the kitchen. Let the vibrant pattern transport you back to 1875, the illustrious year when the design was first created by Morris & Co. The highly detailed and ever-charming pattern tells the story of William Morris, a man who tried over and over to cultivate strawberries at his manor. Despite his best efforts, however, every year the harvest was ruined as the precious fruits were eaten by covetous birds. The design reflects the enduring mythos of the legendary gardener and his plight, and to this end the Strawberry Thief has become one of Morris’ most successful and striking designs.
