The front displays an abstract composition formed by time worn shapes and color fields once part of a larger pictorial tapestry. The palette features warm golden ochre honeyed wheat tones soft flax teal blue and muted indigo with areas of natural patina and visible hand repairs that speak to its centuries old history.

The texture is richly tactile with uneven weave variations and softened fibers that only develop through age. The fragment has been carefully preserved and backed with antique linen to create a refined yet soulful decorative object. This pillow offers a unique way to incorporate true European textile history into a modern or traditional interior. See less
