Leather Pillow

Note a nearly square cushion in russet pile, with a dark patch like a thumbprint on one side.

This is a goat leather and wool pillow. Combining hide and fiber in a single textile joins two of the oldest materials used for household furnishing. Roughly, a squarish cushion covered in long, soft, fluffy pile in warm caramel and cinnamon tones. A darker brown area shows at the left, and a thin black border frames the front edges. It is 20 inches long and 22 high.

Plush, patchy and every bit as inviting as it looks.
