Sunset Horizon, Set of 2 Heirloom Bagh Phulkari Pillows (Trade)

$545.00
| /

This curated set of two 12x20 inch lumbar pillows is a vibrant masterpiece from the Heirloom Bagh Collection. Repurposed from a single, rare 19th-century wedding shawl, this mirrored pair offers a level of architectural symmetry that is exceptionally difficult to find in antique textiles of this caliber. Each piece represents the pinnacle of Punjabi needlecraft, where the base cloth is entirely concealed by an unbroken, shimmering layer of Pat silk thread. The technical brilliance of "The Malwa Horizon" lies in its bold, large-scale geometric field. Rendered in a saturated "sunset" palette of deep magenta, sun-drenched orange, and creamy ivory, the design utilizes a series of interlocking triangles and chevrons. This specific style, often associated with the Chope tradition, uses a superior darning stitch that catches the light in a rhythmic, multi-directional dance. As you move around the room, the silk appears to shift in intensity, mirroring the glow of an evening horizon.

As authentic antique artifacts, these pillows naturally exhibit a beautiful, age-earned patina—including delicate silk softening and minor surface character marks (such as the subtle historical dye variations seen in the magenta fields). These variations are essential proof of the textile’s 100-year history as a handcrafted ceremonial treasure.
