About the Item
This striking decorative pillow is made from a rare 19th century Samarkand rug fragment, woven in Central Asia around the 1850s. The design is rooted in tribal traditions, featuring a bold, linear motif in a balanced, minimal composition. Faded hues of warm walnut, and muted sand give the piece a beautifully aged and earthy tone, perfect for both refined and rustic interiors.
Crafted from handwoven wool, the pillow has been finished with a neutral cotton or linen back and a hidden zipper. The texture, softness, and authentic wear of the textile offer timeless charm and unique character.
