Vintage Rare Jacqmar Pink Red Pop Art Silk Fabric and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow

About the Item

Vintage rare jacqmar pink red pop art silk fabric and Irish linen cushion pillow 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: Large custom made one-of-a-kind cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite example of a vintage Jacamar silk fashion scarf soft red and purple geometric pattern. Jacqmar was a very established London-based textile manufacturer who developed a fashion house after the Second World War. The company was founded by Joseph “Jack” Lyons and his wife Mary, the couple felt that J H Lyons did not sound swish enough so they French-fried a mash-up of their first names and came up with the bizarrely spelled Jacqmar. The company gained a reputation for quality printed head squares from 1941 through the 1950s, and was noted for its patriotic scarves illustrating aspects of wartime Britain as well as scarves designed to be exchanged between wartime sweethearts. It went on to advertise in high fashion magazines such as Vogue and the prestigious V&A's also has Jacamar’s fine scarves in its collections. This silk is very delicate and sumptuous to the touch in pure silk with a luxurious mat finish. Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, it really ‘pops’. Lined in a layer of natural bamboo wadding, filled with new plush duck feather insert and a concealed zip. Handmade in Ireland. Color: Red, fuchsia pink and beige. Tags: Mid-Century Modern.

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 pair of luxury cushions (pillows) created from an exquisite ‘vintage collection’ silk Echo fashion scarf in a peachy pink color with stylized Classic shell design. A very delicate silk in perfect unused condition and beautifully soft to the touch. From a vintage designer boutique in Palm Beach, Florida.
