These cushions are made from a contemporary handwoven ikat from the island of Rote, Indonesia. Occasionally I will purchase new handwoven textiles to support the weaving communities, otherwise the skills would die out.
The textile was a selendang or shawl in thick naturally dyed cotton which is a pretty grass green colour. The ikat is used for the front and back of the cushions and I've added the green tasselled trim at the sides which came from the same textile.
There is a zip fastener and feather pad.
