Dorian Pillow

Hand sewn pillow made from vintage saris. 14" x 20"

 

From the makers, Aloka Home:

Dating back centuries, Indian women stitched together old saris to create large blankets and floor cloths. We attentively select each textile, typically 60-80 years old, with an eye toward material integrity and unusual beauty. Aloka textiles are shampooed then softened before we bring them to our shop in Atlanta where we cut and stitch pillows and custom cushions. You’ll know it’s an Aloka pillow by the way it feels.

These are high quality, vintage pieces. We embrace the charm of the little imperfections and the texture created over time.
