Lily cushions in cork
The artefact
These elegant cushions stand out for the harmonious juxtaposition of the white cotton handcrafted fabric with the traditional design of the lily, and the warm colour of the cork fabric. Entirely handcrafted also using the local relief technique known as a soprariccio semipieno (half bodied a soprariccio), they are part of the Cotton and Cork cushion collection which counts numerous decorative variants with ever-changing details that make each artefact unique.
