Mamba Silk Velvet Ikat Pillow Cover, 20" × 20"
Lush green, warm amber and deep blue running through a wave-like ikat motif in silk velvet. Where the navy pieces in this collection are quiet, this one is not — it is the cushion you put on a plain sofa when the room needs something to look at.

How it's made
The yarn is bound, dyed, unbound and dyed again before it ever reaches the loom. Aligning those pre-dyed threads is the hard part, and the small imprecisions are exactly what produce ikat's soft feathered edges. Woven as silk velvet, the pile then catches light at different angles, so the greens and ambers read warmer or cooler depending where you stand.
Living with it
Strong enough to carry a neutral room on its own, and warm enough to sit against tan leather, walnut or rattan without fighting them. Best used singly or as a pair rather than in a crowd of patterns.
Care
Dry clean only. Do not machine wash, wring or tumble dry. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight, which fades silk dyes. A light steam held at a distance will lift a flattened pile.
