This exquisite pair of custom decorative pillows showcases finely preserved 19th century appliqués, meticulously hand-sewn onto contemporary velvet grounds. The historic appliqués depict elegant, stylized foliate and floral motifs rising from a classical urn form, rendered in softly aged tones of ochre, antique gold, olive, and warm rust, with beautifully nuanced hand-stitching that reflects their period origins.

The appliqués are mounted on a luminous ivory-toned velvet, whose subtle sheen provides a refined backdrop and highlights the depth and texture of the antique textile elements. Each pillow is further enhanced with rich, multicolored silk passementerie, featuring braided cords and tassel fringe in harmonious shades of champagne, celadon, olive, and pale gold. The trim is generously applied, lending movement, texture, and an unmistakably couture finish.

The reverse sides are executed in a coordinating solid textile, allowing versatility in styling while maintaining a clean, tailored appearance. Expertly constructed and generously filled, these pillows balance historic artistry with contemporary craftsmanship.
