Moroccan Wedding Blanket Pillow Colorful Sequins, Boho Cushion Cover 03YL0452

Moroccan wedding blankets (Handira) are a marriage celebration tradition that originated with the Berber tribes, they are meticulously handwoven out of sheeps wool, cotton and linen in anticipation of a wedding by the brides female relatives. It can take hours, even weeks of work to attach metal mirrored sequins (which are authentic elements of Handira throws) once the weaving is complete. These ornate pieces hold significant cultural meaning for the tribes. Throws, poufs and pillows of this style have recently become an international trend. Our breathtaking decorative pillow cushions take original, historic Handira and up-cycle them into easy to fill cases which we have embellished with colorful threads and more metal sequins for a unique appearance. Your pillow will arrive unstuffed, and can be filled through the zippered canvas back. Approximate Dimensions: 21.5" x 19.5" 54.5cm x 49.5cm
