Hand-Embroidered Heavyweight Linen Pillow Black White Swallows

Hand-Embroidered Heavyweight Linen Pillow Black White Swallows

$178.00

A thousand years ago, a tradition of linen took hold in Northern Portugal. Hand-embroidery wasn’t far behind. I’ve always been fascinated by the women that with a few humble materials create beauty that holds the test of time, passing these traditions to the next generation. They were also absolutely game to apply these traditions in new ways as we collaborated on this new pillow collection.

Swallows have always been an important symbol to Portuguese families, a reminder to come back to the family nest as often as they do.

Hand-embroidered Heavyweight European linen with a great feel in the hand and an envelope back. For best results, handwash cold and air-dry flat.

Approx 20" W x 20" D, includes premium stuffer.

How are they made? The (very) old-fashioned way.

Launching Lusitano Studio, my mission was to create a brand that ethically supported Portuguese artisans and helped to keep craft strong. Our new Stonewashed Linen Pillow Collections build on this focus. Working with 3rd generation seamstresses that especialize in a Portuguese version of patchwork, each pillow is hours of effort in hand-cutting panels to craft each pattern. These traditions have been part of our families for generations, I hope they bring just as much joy to yours.

As all pieces are proudly crafted by hand quantities are limited but possibly already in production. If you're looking for additional quantities, email us or sign-up for the waitlist.

Note that as pieces are made by hand and by nature, every piece will be slightly different with beautiful imperfections.
