This Suzani pillow reminds me of vintage applique quilts. It's from Sukan, an Etsy shop in Europe offering over 1,600 pillows for sale.
This long Suzani pillow is another of my favorites. I was browsing through the 39,000 decorative pillows on Etsy and clicking on my favorites. So many were from Sukan, I had to visit the store. Wow!
SEE THE WHOLE TREASURY HERE.
P.S. I was a week ahead in celebrating Mother's Day. Haha, now I get to celebrate again next week.
These are gorgeous pillows. They look like they were made in a third world country by women (or men) in a traditional way. It's wonderful that they don't have the mechanical regularity or "perfection" of mass produced applique.
ReplyDeleteLove the pillows!
ReplyDeleteThe pillows are beautiful. Unfortunately, if someone has 1600 items in their shop at once is very unlikely it is handmade, or at least not by one individual as is Etsy's policy, and this shop does not state it is a collective. Etsy is becoming notorious for not stopping resellers from selling items alongside those of us like you and me who support handmade.
