Leather Bolster Pillow

Shaggy brown cylinder that looks like it wandered in from a very small bear.

This is a goat leather and wool bolster pillow. A bolster is a long, cylindrical cushion, a form used for resting the head or back on beds and sofas in many parts of the world. Up close, a long, rounded bolster covered in thick, matted shaggy pile in russet, chestnut and darker brown. The tufts lie in different directions along its length. Small dark end caps are visible at both ends. It is 17.5 inches long and 6 in diameter.

Soft to look at, and clearly a good listener.
