Kurdish Soumak Trapping Pillow Made from a Repurposed Rug with Down Insert
About the Item
These Kurdish Soumak trapping pillows are constructed from Soumak rugs that are woven thickly, with color and pattern on top and a rougher back underside - a technique that’s mirrored by the decorative face and simple back of this historic cushion - and feature sustainably-sourced and RDS-certified down inserts.
For centuries, Kurdish women have practiced the art of rug-making, creating bags and tapestries that express a creative soul while fulfilling a functional necessity. This pillow is made with the durable remnants of a Soumak rug that was made by Kurdish weavers.
There are lengthy pieces of lounge furniture which would benefit from the addition of a substantial cushion. However, we recommend that you use this plush pillow as part of a low-to-the-ground seating arrangement that emphasizes intimacy. Layer pillows and poufs atop sumptuous rugs in a living room to create a cultured arrangement that’s free from rigid definitions.
