Shrujan hand embroidered cushions

These cushions were produced by Shrujan, a not for profit organisation established in 1969 to encourage women in the Kutch region of India to continue to use their needlework skills. This enabled them both to earn a living selling their work and keep these amazing skills alive. The co-operative that produced these cushions for Shrujan is no longer in existence. It is particularly fine work and only found these days at significantly higher prices.
These cushions are a beautiful silver coloured slubby silk with the embroidery stitches in teal, blue, gold and rose.. There are zip fasteners and feather and down pads.
