Rectangular Cushion 30x40 - Olive with Beige Fringe

$197 USD
Or 4 payments from
$49.25 USD

A crushed olive silk velvet — deep and green-toned, shifting between warm khaki and richer forest depending on the light — finished on all four sides with a beige fringe. The fringe is a soft, warm blush-pink that sits in deliberate contrast to the depth of the velvet, the two colours quietly complementary. The pile moves freely across the surface, giving the velvet a depth that plain fabric would not have.

Designed in Germany and made by hand in India, with fabric dyed to Anke Drechsel's own colour specifications.

Dimensions: 30 × 40 cm

ABOUT the MAKER

Anke Drechsel

Anke Drechsel has worked from her atelier in Karlsruhe since 1986, designing silk velvet cushions and home textiles that are made entirely by hand in India. Each piece is dyed to her own colour specifications and embroidered on the frame by skilled artisans, a process that is slow by intention, and visible in the result. Tessuti carries a curated selection of Drechsel's cushions and decorative objects: plain velvets finished with fringe, and embroidered pieces worked in silk thread on grounds that shift with the light. These are things made to be lived with.
