Carina nebula throw pillow case

Carina nebula throw pillow case

Please note: cushion inner not included

This cushion cover shows one of the coolest sections of the cluster NGC 3324. What looks much like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals previously obscured areas of star birth.

Using high-resolution astronomical images, each cushion cover starts life on my computer so I can place the central part of the nebula on the front of the cushion cover. I then get my designs custom-printed onto high-quality certified organic cotton in France. I make each cushion cover by hand (and sewing machine!) in my solar-powered French studio, before carefully packaging it up and sending it to its new home.

All my items are beautifully finished and are 100% hand made by me in my French studio.

Top tip: for an extra cosy cushion, use an inner that’s slightly bigger than the measurements of the cushion cover! For reference, I used a 50cm x 50cm inner for the product photos.
