A radiant orange-gold starburst sits at the center of this pillow, ringed first in red and then framed by a wide border of white scalloped petals — worked in hand embroidery across a deep brown cotton ground, with the petal border giving the motif a fuller, more sculptural presence than a simple center point. This is a DE-COR design, hand-embroidered by artisans in the Suzani tradition and translated onto a fresh, tailored pillow construction rather than a vintage textile. At 18" square, the larger scale and dimensional white border make it a strong anchor piece on a bed or a deep sofa.
This is a DE-COR design, an 18" hand-embroidered pillow in brown cotton with an orange-gold starburst medallion framed in red and a scalloped white petal border.
Q: Why is the embroidered motif on this pillow larger than on your 16" pillows?
A: It's sized to the pillow — an 18" cover has more surface area, so the medallion and its petal border are scaled up to fill the face proportionally rather than leaving excess plain ground around a smaller motif.
