Maharam Pillow, Drenthe Heath by Claudy Jongstra

About the Item

Maharam pillow Drenthe Heath by Claudy Jongstra 002 grey Named for the species shorn to create it, Drenthe Heath is a handmade felt by Dutch textile artist, Claudy Jongstra, who maintains a herd of sheep in the Dutch countryside along with a botanical garden of natural dyestuffs. Unlike the uniform surface of traditional felts, Jongstra’s creations explode with textural interest, revealing their elemental origins. Drenthe Heath presents raw tufts of fleece mingled with a lustrous wool/silk face, creating an unfinished aesthetic that juxtaposes ancient and modern. Founded in 1902, Maharam offers a comprehensive collection of textiles for commercial and residential interiors. Maharam pillows feature celebrated textile designs from the 20th and 21st centuries, from re-editions of the work of Charles and Ray Eames, Alexander Girard and Verner Panton to recent collaborations with Hella Jongerius, Paul Smith, Scholten & Baijings, and Studio Job. Claudy Jongstra (b. 1963, the Netherlands) is a Dutch textile artist committed to preserving traditional skills, utilizing local resources, and promoting environmental stewardship. Trained as a fashion designer, Jongstra graduated from the Academy of Art in Utrecht in 1989 and soon established her own design studio. Since 1994, she creates art pieces and architectural installations of hand-felted and woven natural fibers. Face: 30% mulberry silk, 25% Drenthe Heath wool, 25% Wesleydale wool, 20% Merino wool. Back: 100% Cotton. Duck feather insert. Variations in color, size and texture are inherent to this textile. Care: Dry clean.
