The front panels feature Fortuny’s unmistakable Renaissance-inspired urn and foliate motif, rendered in softly weathered tones of terracotta, muted celadon, and blue-gray. The textile retains its original quilted construction, giving these pillows extraordinary depth, texture, and a sculptural quality that is seldom seen in Fortuny yardage.

The surface shows the gentle tonal variation and patina that only comes from age and use, enhancing the richness and authenticity of the design. Each pillow is finished with a contemporary solid linen back in a warm complementary rust tone, providing a refined contrast while allowing the historic textile to take center stage. Clean knife edges, careful tailoring, and plush down-filled inserts complete the construction.

These pillows are truly one-of-a-kind—museum-worthy fragments of historic Fortuny fabric transformed into functional decorative objects. Ideal for collectors, designers, or interiors seeking a layered, soulful element with genuine provenance and timeless European character. See less
