Interesting cushions

Here is a concept in cushions, by Margret Thorarensen in Iceland, where you can change their look just by exchanging the centre ribbon. For example you can change the ribbon with a new picture or a new colour fabric (velvet, linen, leather, fur, etc. ) to suit the season. Some of the ribbons are hand painted and can be washed at mild temperature. The ribbons are all sewn, hand knitted, hand crochet and hand painted in Iceland. The fabrics are mainly linen, cotton, silk and Iceland wool which is famous and extremely soft. This winter they will be available in salmon skin.

The pillow cover is made of linen and the center ribbon is made of silk.

Here the cushion cover is made of silk and the ribbonsof linen but is also available in silk.

The following cushion have a pillow cover made of silk (also available in cotton or linen). The outline of Iceland is hand painted in black and is also available in silver. Other outlines of countries can be ordered.

Here the cushion is made of linen and the ribbons are made of silk. The woman and man signs are painted with silver paint but can be washed at mild temperature.

Hereafter the cushion is made from silk. The centre ribbon is hand knitted from Icelandic soft wool and is available in different colours.

These cushions are beautiful and wear sophistication in a simple way, and can clearly complete a scheme! And I would be tempted to say that they are a green alternative first of all because they are made of natural renewable material and secondly because they are versatile as they allow to change the decor by changing the ribbon instead of changing the whole cover!
I really like these cushions and I can't wait to use them for my clients.
