Title: Vintage Salvatore Ferragamo Silk Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow Zebra Black Off-White Description: Custom-made one-of-a-kind cushion (pillow) created from a stunning rare vintage, silk Salvatore Ferragamo fashion scarf in an elaborate flora and fauna design. Salvatore Ferragamo was an innovative shoe designer from Milan renowned for his iconic 1930s cork wedges and the 1947 ‘invisible shoe’. In fact in the 1980s Ferragamo used his early shoe designs as prints on their scarves. He first introduced silk scarves to his collections in the 1950s, the earliest depicting African zoological animals and flora theme, the brand is still known today for producing exotic animals and organic motifs on their luxury scarves. This particular silk is a very rare and exceptional piece, and we feel the zebra find is more unique than their usual tigers and large cats. The charming zebras gracefully appear set within luscious foliage. Exquisitely detailed, note the exotic hortensia/hydrangea flower pattern cleverly drawn covering the animals face and bodies making them appear delicately incased in an extra skin of camouflage. On a sophisticated ground of luxurious navy, which really makes the print pop, and with a beautiful sumptuous sheen. It makes a spectacular and dramatic statement piece for an interior. The fabric was personally hand-picked by Katie at antiques market ‘Marche aux Puces Saint-Ouen’ on the outskirts of Paris. On a sumptuous silk soft to the touch. Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, lined in a layer of natural bamboo cloth, filled with new custom-made plush duck feather insert and a concealed zip. The traditional oatmeal color linen is a combination of the unbleached raw colour of the natural flax plant on the weft intertwined with pristine white on the warp, resulting in a beautiful melange effect. Katie is an ambassador The European Confederation of Flax and Hemp (CELC). Also see our fabulous array of other Ferragamo scarf pillows also listed here on 1stdibs. We have this particular pillow in another colour-way, ivory, also available here on 1stdibs. The images to the end of the picture gallery are other pieces.

By designer-maker Katie Larmour This cushion is a one-of-a-kind and part of a sustainability project.
