Royal Ribbon, Large Heirloom Bagh Phulkari Pillow

$485.00
| /

This oversized 24-inch square pillow is a vibrant masterpiece of Museum-Grade Phulkari, repurposed from a rare 19th-century Heirloom Bagh. Known as the "Garden of Flowers," this textile represents the absolute zenith of Punjabi needlecraft, where the base Khaddar cotton is entirely concealed by an unbroken, shimmering layer of Pat silk thread. Hand-stitched with remarkable density, the un-twisted silk reflects light with a metallic brilliance, shifting between tones of radiant amber and burnished saffron. The technical brilliance of "The Regency Ribbon" lies in its bold, diagonal striped geometry. By meticulously varying the blocks of color—ranging from saturated fuchsia and cream tones to sun-drenched orange—the artisan has created a rhythmic, multi-tonal field that catches the light at every angle. This diagonal "Leheriya" effect was historically designed to mimic the movement of water and is one of the more celebratory and difficult patterns to execute in a solid Bagh. As an authentic antique artifact, it exhibits a beautiful, age-earned patina, including delicate thread softening and minor surface variations that serve as essential proof of its 100-year history.

The substantial 24x24 profile makes this pillow a primary room anchor, functioning beautifully as a statement floor cushion or the central focal point of a grand sofa. Its high-contrast palette and radiant silk make it a natural centerpiece for Global Bohemian, Eclectic Modern, or Mediterranean-style interiors. To highlight the heritage craftsmanship, style it alongside neutral linens or solid matte textures like charcoal wool to let the "Regency" stripes command the room.
