What pattern do these covers carry?
Small leaf cut-outs are arranged in vertical rows down each cover, in a deeper purple over a light lilac base. The vertical lines give the cushions a clean, ordered look, and the small scale keeps the pattern calm.
How strong is the contrast here?
It is tone-on-tone, with both layers in the purple family, so the contrast is soft. The leaves are clearly visible but do not jump out, which makes this set easy to use in larger numbers on a sofa or bed.
Which rooms and colours does it go with?
Light lilac is cool and gentle. It works well with white, pale grey or navy upholstery and with silver or glass accents. In a bedroom it pairs nicely with white or soft grey bed linen.
How do I take care of them?
Dry cleaning is the preferred option. For a home wash, hand wash gently with a mild detergent, wash them separately from other items and dry them in the shade, away from direct sun.
Who are these made by?
They are handcrafted in Barmer by a women's self-help group under master artisan Keshav. We source the covers directly from Keshav's embroidery cooperative, so the set comes to you straight from the group that makes it.
Where can I use these?
They are meant for sofas, beds and cosy spots around the home, such as a reading corner, a window seat or a diwan. With five covers you can dress a sofa and an armchair together, or line up the head of a bed.
