Kashmir Floral Textile Pillow from The Met Museum
$240
Our pillow features a detail from a lush embroidered wall hanging in The Met collection, attributed to Kashmir, India and made about 1820-30. Kashmir became famous in the 19th century for its beautiful woven shawls made of the fine goat’s wool called pashmina. Hangings, cushion covers, and articles of clothing were also woven in this distinctive double-interlocking tapestry-weave style, with floral themes serving as the most common motifs.
