The Romy Cushion in Silver covers its entire face in a repeated open flower — five scallop-edged petals worked in warm blush thread on a pale ivory silk velvet ground. The blooms are even and closely spaced, each centre punctuated with a small gathered stitch, the pattern allover and softly rhythmic. The velvet beneath holds a quiet warmth, giving the blush embroidery a ground that shifts between ivory and the palest cream in the light. Up close the stitch is clear and precise; from a distance the surface reads as a delicate, textured field of blush on ivory.

Designed in Germany and made by hand in India, each Romy Cushion is embroidered on the frame, piece by piece, with fabric dyed to Drechsel's own colour specifications.

Dimensions: 30 × 40 cm

Hand embroidered silk velvet.

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.
