Beautiful Antique Pillow

Velvet panel is made up from two sections hand stitched together. Is well preserved with of course appropriate signs of wear commensurate with a textile that is over three hundred and fifty years old

Please study photographs as they do form a very important part of the description

SIZE 18 inches x 16 inches 

LAYAWAY AVAILABLE    S 2274

FOOTNOTE  All my pillows are hand made by myself incorporating wherever possible rare early textiles

I travel extensively throughout Europe to locate beautiful hard to find textiles , some of which can be up to 400 years old and of course will show evidence of this immense age

Rarely totally symmetrical , with perfectly straight lines, without wear ,evenness in colour etc

I work as best I can to retain all of this inherent quirkiness to obtain a gently time worn faded grandeur appeal that only be achieved over centuries of use 

Your pillow will be perfectly imperfect.
