"I. You. He. She. We. In the garden of mystic lovers, these are not true distinctions."—Rumi
Handmade luxury. This romantic throw pillow conjures Rumi's visions of gardens and love. Here, hand-beaded poppies, tulips and lotus flowers emerge from a barn-red cotton canvas base.
Our artisans begin by pouncing the design in chalk, which they outline in tiny metallic beads. The flower designs emerge from individually set dimensional glass beads in pinks, yellows, blues and greens punctuated by whites and metallics. From start to finish, it takes a master artisan between 12-14 hours to hand bead-embroider your pillow.
Paradise Pillow
Handmades are different than commercial products and require a different kind of care for long, luxurious product life. Hand embroidered and beaded products should be spot cleaned. Whenever you need deeper cleaning, use a professional dry cleaner known for gentle, non-toxic methods and materials.
Handwovens and natural dyes are created pretty much the way they have been made for over 1000 years. As pre-industrial products, they pre-date chemical mordants to affix color. On the making end, handmades and natural dyes are almost perfectly circular and don't pollute or create toxic waste. They are joyful to use because they have living finishes with beauty and soul.
Natural dyes require traditional care in order to maintain their beauty and longevity. Care Gently spot, hand, or gentle machine wash in cold water. No twisting or wringing. Dry flat for best shape retention. Light iron. Do not bleach. Use an eco-friendly/natural, free from chemicals & as pH neutral as possible. Avoid added fragrances and conditioners. Or, dry clean.
Caution Keep natural dyes away from anything acidic or alkaline, which can instantly bleach natural dyes. The stay-away list includes citrus, wine, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, calcium, baking soda, etc.
