$38.50 USD
A crushed nightshade silk velvet — very deep, almost black, with just enough blue-purple in its depth to keep it from reading as neutral — finished on all four sides with a dusty plum fringe. The fringe is the warmest thing about this cushion, a faded rose-purple that draws out the colour buried in the velvet. The pile shifts slightly in the light, the surface never quite settling to a single tone.
Designed in Germany and made by hand in India, with fabric dyed to Anke Drechsel's own colour specifications.
Dimensions: 27 × 27 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.
