{BUTTERFLY RELIQUARY PARLOR CUSHION}
While quite delicate and
demure on the surface, this cushion holds a deeper meaning… A
butterfly (long rumored to be a vessel for souls on their journey
through the Underworld) sits at this cushion’s heart…
A
sumptuous selection of materials were used to create this cushion.
Firstly, a fragment of dusty charcoal chenille, a befitting
background for an array of silks & trimming in tones of ivory,
ecru & celadon. Next, a corsage-like rosette adorned with a lush
layer of ribbon fringe, a glittering vintage butterfly brooch perched
at it's center. Other details include a wide band of woven
passementerie encircling the finery in pleats. Lastly, a
luxurious panel of hand ruched silk accentuates the pillow edge, to
each side a row of bauble trim making the cushion complete. Perfect
for a garden room or grand salon, shall this lovely lady be yours?
This pillow is currently available for purchase at our Etsy Shop.
