It is pleasing to learn that this ancient, highly skilled craft is making a comeback. The suzani embroidery threads should be silk, using two traditional stitches, 'Basma stitch', sometimes called Bukhara couching, and less often 'chain' stitching. In neither case, an unbelievable amount of time and care goes into making each piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection is really for the connoisseur. The front of the cushion is made of silk with hand-embroidered work, finely produced in silk. Many cushions on the market may not be authentic or may be lower quality, and they are often machine-embroidered on silk or even viscose. The cushions are delicate and not designed for harsh use, as silk can easily snag; in intense sunlight, silk can also deteriorate. These cushions are beautiful and simply stunning. They are filled with non-allergenic fibre fill, which should be an advantage, as feather fillings, if used, may eventually migrate through the fabric and damage the silk. \u003cstrong\u003eThe back of the cushion is made of fine cotton percale.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e50 x 50cm (19\" x 19\")\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"jenningsrugs","offers":[{"title":"50 x 50 cm (19\" x 19\")","offer_id":55643988197752,"sku":"307746-BU","price":125.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1281\/1783\/files\/307746BU0aUzbekSilkCushion.jpg?v=1788016051","url":"https:\/\/www.jenningsrugs.co.uk\/products\/handmade-uzbek-suzani-silk-cushion-307746-bu","provider":"Jennings Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
