Embroidered Silk Blend Cushion Cover with Pomegranate Motifs, "Pomegranate Fortunes"

The rich artistic heritage of Central Asia includes the decorative tradition of Suzani embroidery. Ripe pomegranates adorn the front, the old-world symbol of abundance and prosperity, while vines and leaves are brought to life by silk threads in pretty colours, all hand stitched onto a silk and cotton base. The backside showcases the artistry of hand woven ikat, another cherished textile tradition of Central Asia. Complete with a hidden zip closure, the cushion cover is a testament to the timeless elegance and craftsmanship that defines this extraordinary art form. The Uzbekistani team puts their expertise into practise to create the embroidered pomegranate-themed scene that adorns the front, often used as omens of fertility and abundance. The accessory, made in silk fabrics and threads features a contrasting cotton ikat farbic ornamenting the back, concealing the zipper opening.
