Rajkat Green Dotted Ahir Handloom Pillow

$165.00
| /

Woven in Gujarat, western India, from antique Mashru, the traditional silk-warp, cotton-weft cloth prized for its lustrous face and cool cotton hand. This piece carries Kankani, the traditional micro-dot weave pattern most closely associated with Anjar, Kutch, in a slightly softer, deeper turquoise than its sibling in this batch, finished with contrast fuchsia piping. Viewed up close, the tiny woven dots reveal the handloom's fine, deliberate patterning; from a distance, they read as a softly textured solid.

Origin: Gujarat, Western India (Mashru tradition, Kankani dot-weave pattern, Anjar/Kutch)
Material: Silk warp / cotton weft; fuchsia contrast piping
Size: 19"(W) x 19"(H)

A hand-loomed Mashru silk-and-cotton pillow from Gujarat, India, in the traditional Kankani micro-dot pattern on a deep turquoise ground.

Q: What pairs well with a deep emerald textured pillow? A: An emerald green this saturated works as a cooling counterpoint to warm woods, brass, and terracotta, it reads as a considered accent rather than competing when placed against neutral or warm-toned upholstery.
