Pillow featuring 1950s Icons - Vertigo & Denim

designer :: Quintessentia

new item with vintage elements::

This pillow is a great design featuring two icons of 1950's design, a spiraling, hand-printed fabric which reminds one of the film poster of the Hitchcock film, "Vertigo", and the fabric that is synonymous with hip 50's clothing, denim. Hence, we call it the "50's Icon Pillow". The combination of the two fabrics creates a timeless design for today and tomorrow that is the perfect throw pillow as accent or eye-catcher. It features hand-sewn cording in the vertigo fabric.

Each Q Living pillow is designed by Quintessentia combining vintage and antique fabrics from different time periods and genres. We believe this is a wonderful way to integrate rare and unusual fabrics, aesthetically and artistically, into modern daily life and an opportunity to create something unique and special.

Each pillow is individually sewn in private workshops in Zurich, Switzerland using the best materials, including YKK zippers, handmade trims and design accents. The inserts are 100% down feather-filled, cotton-covered pillows expressly created for Quintessentia. As the pillows are made with vintage or antique fabrics, slight variations of color and pattern between pillows may occur.
