Vintage Heather Purple Donegal Tweed Irish Wool with Irish Linen Cushion Pillow

About the Item

Vintage heather purple Donegal tweed Irish wool with Irish Linen cushion pillow Custom made luxury cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite tweed in a beautiful soft heather shade with delicate fleaks of orange and red. The beautifully textured high quality heavy weight fabric is from an unused vintage roll. Donegal tweed is a handwoven 100% natural tweed wool manufactured in County Donegal, Ireland. Donegal has producing tweed from local materials for centuries. Sheep thrive in the hills and bogs of Donegal, and indigenous plants such as blackberries, fuchsia, gorse (whins) and moss provide dyes. It has an appearance as varied and attractive as an Irish landscape. It is backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, 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. Donegal tweed in particular is a highly sought after cloth, world renowned, just like the linen. A combination of two natural fibres, both wool and linen represent the fabrics of Ireland’s heritage and history. It is a contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with precious vintage elements. Would look excellent with a traditional or contemporary interior, whether a bachelor pad, country style, matched with Mid-Century Modern furniture or a 1960s look. Handmade in Ireland. By designer-maker Katie Larmour for Katie Larmour Design Ireland Studio. Color: Heather, lavender, purple, grey, nude, pale pink, blush, brown, beige, cream and off-white. Alternatives and matching items: We have a small batch of this particular fabric available for more cushions to be made. We can make more of this exact cushion or this fabric can also be incorporated into our variety of designs as an alternative or to be paired with this one. For example, a plain Irish linen front with a triangular corner patch, square or rectangle block of the green tweed. We also have a range of cushions and pillows using just the oatmeal Irish linen alone. The collection designed in 2015 won KL Design Ireland a place with the British European Design Group to showcase with them at New York design week in 2016.

Highly textured, grainy and sumptuous to touch. Each cushion is handmade in Ireland. Lined in organic cotton, and finished with a concealed zip.

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.

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.
