An exquisite example of antique Punjabi folk art, this 18-inch pillow is crafted from a ceremonial wedding shawl in the “open-work” Phulkari style. Deep brown Khaddar cotton forms a rich backdrop for vibrant silk stars and geometric motifs that seem to float across the surface. Subtle wear, softened threads, and minor irregularities reflect its age, adding authenticity and historic charm to this striking, textural piece.
