Title: Vintage Italian Versace Silk Scarf Perfume Print with Irish Linen Pillow Blue Gold Description: A custom made luxury cushion created from an exquisite vintage / pre-loved Versace silk fashion scarf in a striking print. The striking print features perfume bottles and the Medusa in the centre. The flamboyant Italian fashion house was founded by Gianni Versace in 1978 and is known for their flashy prints and bright colors, as in this bold example. The fabric was personally hand-picked by Katie at antiques market ‘Marche aux Puces Saint-Ouen’ on the outskirts of Paris. On a sumptuous cotton 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). This bold pillow is without a doubt the ultimate statement piece for an interior. Elegant and glam it conjures sophistication and seductive luxury with a vibrant and energetic essence. We have an array of other special designer pillows in different prints, patterns and colour ways listed here on 1stdibs. A contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with antique elements by using fragments of precious fabric. Handcrafted in Ireland By designer-maker Katie Larmour This cushion is a one-of-a-kind and part of a sustainability project. It has been created from a repurposed, up-cycled, recycled fabric, used with the intentions on promoting a more eco-friendly environment. We both celebrate and cherish the past and take care with rare and precious vintage and antique materials.

Rare Vintage Hermes Blue and Gold Silk Astronomy Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion P

Located in Belfast, Northern Ireland
Katie Larmour Studio is the original vintage scarf pillow maker. Gaining notability for her unique idea and creations back in 2013 - featured in the likes of the Financial Times, and first selling here on 1stdibs in 2016 - our creations are of the absolute top most quality, craftsmanship and finesse. Thank-you for looking. Title: Rare Vintage Hermes Blue and Gold Silk Astronomy Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow Description: The ‘crème de la crème’ of scarves, this beauty is a one-of-a-kind custom made luxury cushion (pillow) from an exquisite and rare vintage silk mythological themed Hermes fashion scarf designed by Philippe Ledoux, who has created many beautiful ‘carrés' for the Maison Hermes. First issued in 1964 the ‘Cosmos’ print has been re-issued several times. Here it is in a harmonious colour way of varying shades of blue crowned with illustrations in lavish antique gold. The mythological design depicts Phoebus, also known as Apollo, the god of sun and light, gallantly riding his chariot across the sky, making the sun rise and set across the universe. In all four corners of this print, he is seen charging from the heavens, from two different angles of perspective, with his chariot and horses galloping on a seemingly weightless cloud upon elegant scrolling golden leaves. The busy picture features ornamental details and architectural Renaissance motifs, spiralling and curling, connected by intricate and interlacing decorative ribbons and topped with striking stars. Scattered across the surface are smaller subtle twinkling stars adding to the magic and alluding to a midnight theme. Note the iconic ‘Hermes Paris’ proudly running long the bottom centre also in gold, the artist’s signature ‘Ledoux’ nearby on the bottom right hadn’t corner, and another ‘C Hermes’ in the top right hand corner, the ‘C’ for copyright being found on Hermes earlier...

Vintage Hermes Equestrian Silk Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow
By Hermès
Located in Belfast, Northern Ireland
Katie Larmour Studio is the original vintage scarf pillow maker. Gaining notability for her unique idea and creations back in 2013 - featured in the likes of the Financial Times, and first selling here on 1stdibs in 2016 - our creations are of the absolute top most quality, craftsmanship and finesse. Thank-you for looking. Title: Vintage Hermes Equestrian Silk Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow The ‘crème de la crème’ of scarves, this beauty is a one-of-a-kind luxury cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite vintage silk Hermes fashion scarf in their festive ‘Les Rubans Du Cheval’ equestrian pattern by Joachim Metz in 1988. A variety of elaborate ribbon rosettes in vibrant, colourful hues - an ornament made of pleated material, gathered so as to resemble a rose and worn as a decorative badge to show ranking in a competition. The French company began in 1837 producing superior quality leather goods, harnesses and saddles, which makes sense that 100 years later the main theme on their luxury scarves is equestrian. Hermes scarves, known as ‘carre’ (squares), have become a symbol of French chic and are a highly desirable object across the globe that still continues to delight. Favoured by the ‘jet-setters’ of the 50s and 60s and gaining iconic status by Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and this particular elegant design even worn by Queen Elizabeth II. The name of the print along with the brand’s signature proudly features in the centre. The attractive equestrian design is a delicately detailed illustration of bridal equipment with buckles, leather straps, feminine mermaids holding up functional hoops and lions holding crests on other sections of the metal hardware adorning the elaborate piece. It features a display of two equestrian horse bride dressings symmetrical like a mirror image of each other. In a dramatic, busy picture of multicoloured ribbon colour way on a quality sumptuous twill silk with a beautiful texture. It was made using the ‘Lyonnaise technique’ silk screen process with each of it’s 13 frames traditional laid one by one by hand (the more complex patterns can go out to 42). Before being carefully unravelled to create our cushion, the edge was delicately hand rolled and hemmed, a distinctive French style finish of all Hermes scarves. We also have a couple of other similar stunning Hermes scarf cushions...
