Turkish Cotton Ikat Pillow

Firmly, a small blue and cream cushion, drawn out in blurry scrolls and teardrops.

This ikat pillow is from Turkey. It is embroidered cotton & silk. Embroidered cotton and silk have long been combined in Turkish textiles, and cushions and covers are among the common household forms made from them. Held in frame, a rectangular cushion with softly blurred patterns in indigo and cream. Large scrolls and a pointed oval shape run across the middle, with thinner swirls at the corners. The edges are crisp and the surface looks smooth. It is 24 inches wide and 15.75 long.

Soft focus, strong swirls and a very comfortable tone.
