Wave Cushion in cork
The artefact
The clear-cut lines of contemporary taste of these elegant cushions are characterised by the original juxtaposition of the artisanal white cotton fabric with wave motifs handcrafted according to the local relief technique known as a soprariccio semipieno (half bodied a soprariccio) harmoniously combined with the warm colour of cork. Entirely handcrafted, they are part of the Cotton and Cork cushion collection which counts numerous decorative variants with ever-changing details that make each artefact unique.
