Khamma Ghani Applique Cushion Cover (Set of 5) White

What is the design on these covers?

Each cover is built around one large sunburst flower at the centre, with smaller leaves scattered around it. It is cut and stitched white on white with a faint grey layer, so the flower stands out through its layered edges rather than through colour.

How does a single large motif look on a sofa?

A centred flower gives each cushion a clear focal point, so even a row of white covers looks considered rather than plain. It works beautifully against a dark or coloured sofa, and in a white room it adds a soft, sculpted detail.

What goes into making the sunburst?

Appliqué means fabric pieces are cut into shapes and stitched onto a base. Here the petals of the sunburst are cut and layered by hand, which gives the flower its slight depth and the soft shadows that make a white-on-white design readable.

Will the flower look the same on every cover?

The overall colour stays similar, but the patches may vary, because each cover is cut and stitched by hand and finding exactly the same patches is extremely difficult. Expect small differences in the petals and leaves; these irregularities are a natural part of handwork.

Are inserts part of the set?

No, the set is five cushion covers without inserts. Each cover is 16x16 inches, so choose 16x16 inch fillers. A well-filled insert keeps the central flower flat and centred on the cushion face.

Who makes these covers?

They are handcrafted in Barmer, Rajasthan, by a women's self-help group led by master artisan Keshav. We source directly from Keshav's embroidery cooperative, so each set comes to you from the women who made it.
