About the Item
This cushion is a one-of-a-kind and part of a sustainability project. It has been created from an up-cycled, recycled luxury fabric, used with the intentions of promoting a more eco-friendly environment by using already existing materials. We both celebrate and cherish the past and take care with rare and precious vintage and antique materials. Through layers of carefully added backing the delicate fabric has been fortified for longevity and thus preserved. (The original designer/brand has been fully credited below) Description: custom made one-of-a-kind luxury cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite vintage silk Aquascutum fashion scarf in a beautiful plaid pattern. The check design is made up of a mix of beige, taupe and navy. Immediately recognizable brand by the signature club check, however it is a very rare version of the iconic design as the geometric pattern is broken up with very sleek blocks of colour in a style inspired by the Modern Movement, Bauhaus, Russian Constructivists and De Stijl. British designer brand Aquascutum was established in 1851 by tailor and entrepreneur John Emary when he opened a high quality menswear shop in Regent Street, London. He produced and patented the first waterproof wool, thus naming his company ‘Aquascutum’, which is Latin for ‘watershield’. It’s an extremely interesting and historical and prestigious brand, they supplied soldiers trench coats for the Crimean and both World Wars, had Royal patronage, his majesty King Edward VII ordered a coat in the Prince of Wales check with the brand granted a royal warrant, and their water-repellent capes were popular among British suffragettes as well as an astonishing host of celebrated figures including, George V, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Rainier of Monaco, Sir Winston Churchill, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Sophia Loren, Cary Grant, and Michael Caine and more recently UK prime minister Baroness Thatcher. Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles perfect to compliment this heritage textile, and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, lined in a layer of natural bamboo wadding, filled with new plush duck feather insert and a concealed zip. The traditional oatmeal color 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 dabbled effect. Tartan has an air of prestige, tradition and Celtic heritage, however this cushion would look very cool in both a Classic or contemporary setting and is indeed the perfect bachelor pad accessory. Very suitable for a Christmas gift or festive themed home accessory. A contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with antique elements by using fragments of precious fabric. Handmade in Ireland. Color: Navy, beige, cream, off-white, ivory, brown, taupe, tan and oatmeal.

Luxury Vintage Irish Linen Pillow Woven in Ireland Blue Stripe Cushion
Located in Belfast, Northern Ireland
Luxury pillow created from exquisite and rare vintage Irish Linen by Irish designer Katie Larmour.
Made from quality vintage, pure, 100% Irish Linen made from the flax plant, from an unused roll.
Highly textured, grainy and sumptuous to touch.
Each cushion is handmade in Ireland.
Lined in organic cotton, and finished with a concealed zip.
Recommended 20x20" feather filler insert for plumpness.
Backed in new natural undyed Irish linen on the reverse.
Irish Linen is highly regarded worldwide, known since the turn-of-the-century as ‘white gold’ and the ultimate ‘aristocrat of textiles’.
Katie Larmour is an associate member of The Irish Linen Guild and highlighted as a ‘recommended purveyor of Irish Linen goods’ by the guild on their official website.
Katie is an ambassador The European Confederation of Flax and Hemp (CELC).
Katie Larmour’s Studio are renowned for their high end creations.
In beautiful faded tones of soft blue and navy, reminiscent of traditional French textiles.
Both the hue and striped pattern make this a wonderfully versatile piece, working particularly well with beach house, yachts, sailboat, nautical decor, rustic, country manor house, bohemian and ‘shabby-chic’ interiors.
More than one is available. There may be a lead making time of approx 1-2 weeks (often a small amount of stock is made and ready for immediate shipping)
Please note the nature of linen is that the surface may contain ‘slubs’, this is to do with the weaving process. They are not seen as flaws and add to the textile’s character and charm, it is the nature of the natural fabric and we ask you to take this into consideration before ordering.
