Located in Winder, GA
Magnificent carved velvet with a dominant linen pattern of Hungarian stitch, characteristic of the 17th century.
Fabulous woven pattern. For those interested, A Hungarian stitch is one of the oldest needlepoint techniques and employs three long stitches combined with two shorter ones to deliver, roughly, a diamond-shaped result. Shades of rose, red, green, yellow….very intricate in carved velvet. The end pattern gives a Missoni-inspired reinvented flame stitch of sorts.
As an aside, this is by far the most costly fabric in my inventory. I feel somewhat compelled (but not too much) to apologize for the pricing. But recently through an odd set of events, I found myself in a factory on the border of Belgium and France. Pierre Frey fabrics (and some being crafted for The Orient Express) were on their looms and I was captivated. Pricey…for sure…..worth it…no question.
This listing is for a pair of plush down-filled pillows. They will be crafted using Pierre Frey Budapest...
