ABOUT THE BRAND:

WHAT IT IS:
Cotton and wool, hooked loop by loop into a pile that covers the entire face, make this pillow closer to a small rug than a printed cushion. The ground is lilac; on it, an ivory shape holds a rust vase and a bouquet, each color a solid block of pile with a clean edge against the next. Nothing on the face is flat. The pile is deep enough to keep the mark of a hand, and to lose it again in a moment. Against a leather or linen sofa the lilac is the strongest color in the room and the bouquet comes second. The hooked surface takes wear on the loops rather than on a stitch line, and the colors stay put. Measurements: 20" W x 20" H Material: Cotton and wool blend front with cotton backing Color: Lilac ground with multicolored floral embroidery in rust, ochre, forest green, navy, and ivory Natural variation: Slight variations in embroidery texture highlight the individuality of each piece Sold as a pillow cover only; insert not included
