Cushion – Kashmir bird

Cushion, Kashmir bird from the Swedish design brand, A World of Craft. The cushion is made in the Kashmir region of northern India, and has hand-embroidered chain stitches that cover the entire surface. The front with the pattern is 100% wool, and the back is white, unbleached cotton.

A World of Craft collaborates with local artisans to highlight crafts from developing countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. A large part of the A World of Craft catalogue is developed by A World of Craft Studio, the company’s own design team. The idea is to use design as a tool to develop and market traditional crafts, thereby helping to create jobs in regions where crafts are currently the primary source of income. In this way, unique craft traditions are given the opportunity to survive, while A World of Craft customers have access to crafts from large parts of the world.
