Sashiko—Japanese for "little stabs"—evolved from a practical way to mend and reinforce fabric into an art form in its own right. Inspired by this useful and lovely technique, our throw pillow embellishes spruce green velvet with dainty multidirectional ivory stitches. Skilled artisans embroider the organic cotton velvet by hand for a perfectly imperfect look that's at once timeless and modern. Our exclusive lumbar pillow includes your choice of a plush feather-down or lofty down-alternative insert.
