A breathtaking study in Antique Punjabi Folk Art, this 18-inch square pillow is handcrafted from a salvaged ceremonial wedding shawl. This piece showcases the "open-work" Phulkari tradition, where the deep chocolate Khaddar (hand-loomed cotton) acts as a dramatic, earthy canvas for scattered tribal motifs. Rendered in high-luster silk thread, the vibrant stars and geometric medallions appear to float on the dark base, creating a rhythmic energy that feels both ancient and strikingly modern. The mastery of this piece lies in the contrast between the matte, rugged cotton and the shimmering silk embroidery. As a genuine handcrafted antique, the textile exhibits signs of its ceremonial past—including softened thread-work, minor weave gaps, and authentic surface marks. These "perfect imperfections" are the hallmark of 19th-century tribal artifacts, providing a tactile connection to the nomadic history of the Punjab region.

This pillow serves as a sophisticated textural anchor for Eclectic Modern and Global Modern spaces. Its dark palette and jewel-toned silk motifs make it an ideal choice for high-end interiors that prioritize natural materials and one-of-a-kind found objects.
