About

This elegant pair of decorative pillows is crafted with antique 18th Century French Aubusson tapestry fragments, and passementerie, beautifully repurposed into richly embellished accent pillows. Each down pillow centers on a woven tapestry fragment with stylized floral and foliate motifs in muted blue, gold, ivory, brown, and soft green tones, set against a golden velvet ground.
The tapestry panels are framed with ornate metallic braid trim, adding texture and definition while enhancing the historic character of the fragments. The pillows are further finished with elaborate passementerie, including tassel fringe, pom-pom trim, braided edging, and blue-accented cord details. The backs are covered in a dark contrasting fabric, allowing the pillows to be displayed beautifully from either side.
Decorative, layered, and full of old-world charm, this antique pair would bring warmth and texture to a sofa, settee, bench, or bed. The combination of Aubusson tapestry, velvet, and elaborate French-style trim gives the pair a luxurious and collected look. Wear and minor imperfections are consistent with age and use.
Dimensions: 19″W x 6.5″D x 19″H
