Geometric Brown and White Pillow from Vintage Curtains in Corbusier style Berber Pattern
Description
This pillow was made from vintage synthetic curtains, probably 1960s. This diagonal lattice pattern originated in the abstract geometric designs of handmade Berber carpets (not the modern commercial wool carpets known as berber now). Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright and many others considered those carpets key to modern rooms. This fabric, like the cream coloured one we're showing here for the sake of comparison (sold out a few years ago), is meant to reference that look. Because this fabric is a loose weave, we have backed it in a matching brown muslin cotton. Despite the loose weave, these are incredibly durable. Very well-made, very strong fibers. It shouldn't pull. We are using these in our studio and they show no signs of wear yet. The back is identical - we don't use cheap backings.Pillow is 20"x20" (51cmX51cm), with stainless steel zippered closure, and sustainably-made, all-new 100% duck feather insert. We can ship with or without the insert. 10 dollars less, plus cheaper shipping, without insert.
An heirloom is by definition something that's made to last - it doesn't fall apart, and it's beautiful regardless of trends.
We have a number of these - we don't what kind of living room these curtains came from, but it was obviously immense.
