About the Item

It does not come with an insert but a bag made to the size to accommodate insert materials. Linen in the back. Zipper closure. Dry cleaning is reccommended. Antique Ottoman sarma embroidery is a type of embroidery that originated in the Ottoman Empire, which encompassed parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa from the late 13th century to the early 20th century. Sarma embroidery refers to a style of embroidery in which gold and silver threads are wrapped around a core thread, creating a raised, textured effect. Ottoman sarma embroidery was typically used to adorn garments, textiles, and household items, and was highly prized for its intricate designs and luxurious materials. Common motifs included floral patterns, geometric shapes, and calligraphic scripts, often combined to create complex and layered designs. The item above is an original pillow case, the only modification done to it is the replacement of the backing.
