What makes up the patchwork on this throw?
A crimson red base carries small embroidered patches in pink, green, gold and orange, spread across the whole throw. Red tassels finish the edge. The green patches give a cool contrast that keeps the red from feeling flat.
What will it look like on a neutral sofa?
Bold. On grey, beige or white upholstery it becomes the clear focal point of the room. Wooden furniture and brass accents suit its warmth, and a plain rug lets the patchwork stand out without competing patterns around it.
What are the sizes?
The three-seater throw measures 27x68 inches, each single-seater throw is 27x30 inches, and the cushion covers are 16x16 inches. Measure the seat and back of your sofa to see how you would like the throw to fall.
Why might the patches differ from the pictures?
Every piece is put together by hand, so the exact patches used change from one to the next. The overall colour stays similar to what you see, and small irregularities are a natural part of handwork. That variation is what makes each one unique.
Where is it made?
In Barmer, by a women's self-help group led by master artisan Keshav. We source it directly from Keshav's embroidery cooperative. The patchwork is done by hand in cotton, which is why small irregularities appear from piece to piece.
What size cushion fillers do I need?
The covers are 16x16 inches, so use 16x16 inch fillers. The set comes with the covers, which means you can use cushions you already have at home if they match that size.
