CLASSIFICATION: Cultural Textile Architecture (Rare Double-Weave) CONSTRUCTION: Handwoven Double-Weave Technique PROVENANCE: Gujarat, India MATERIAL: 100% Cotton ROLE: Permanent Historical and Textural Anchor

This pillow is an acquisition of an endangered textile art form. The material is meticulously crafted using a handwoven double-weave technique, a specialized style that originated in Gujarat, India, dating back to the 1860s.

Crucially, this intricate, two-layered weaving technique is now preserved by only three families in India, making this textile a genuinely rare cultural asset. The pillow uses the same fabric on both sides for continuity and durability.

It is an investment in preservation, ensuring a piece of specialized textile history is integrated into your domestic domain.


The Curator's Notes

  • Historical Rarity: The double-weave technique dates to the 1860s, and its production is limited to just three families, granting this piece significant historical and artisanal value.
  • Material Fidelity: Constructed from 100% cotton, the pillow ensures natural breathability, a soft hand-feel, and enduring quality.
  • Dimensional Standard: Provided in a versatile 20" x 20" square geometry, ideal for placement on sofas, accent chairs, or bedding layers.
