Vintage Lanvin Orange and Blue Geometric Scarf with Irish Linen Cushion Pillow
About the Item
Custom made one-of-a-kind luxury cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite vintage Lanvin fashion scarf in an orange and blue geometric pattern. An extremely unique find from a Parisian antiques market and a very unusual example of a piece by Lanvin, with it’s bold and dramatic design and vibrant color. Many influences are coming through from neoclassical, Neo-Grec (Greek Revival) to Aztec and tribal. Founded by Jeanne Lanvin in 1889, Lanvin is the oldest couture fashion house still in operation today. Originally trained as a milliner, Lanvin made such beautiful clothes for her daughter Marie-Blanche de Polignac that they began to attract the attention of a number of wealthy people who requested copies for their own children. Soon, Lanvin was making dresses for their mothers, and some of the most famous names in Europe were included in the clientele of her new boutique on the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore´, Paris. Lanvin's skilful use of intricate trimmings, virtuoso embroideries and beaded decorations became a Lanvin trademark. Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen in pristine white, the aristocrat of textiles 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 textures of the fabrics are soft and subtle and compliment each other wonderfully. A contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with antique elements by using fragments of precious fabric.Handmade in Ireland by designer-maker Katie Larmour color: Orange, blue, navy, black, beige and white. Tags: Bohemian, tribal, optical illusion.

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...
