Every embroiderer imparts a fragment of their soul onto the fabric. She requires intense concentration to execute her craft meticulously, to make each stitch, one stitch after another, stitches which are deliberately placed next to the following ones —dozens, hundreds, an infinite cascade of stitches— forming intricate figures with delicate, fine threads across small, medium, and large canvases.
Every cushion boasts over 100,000 meticulously handmade stitches, creating an illusion of machine precision. Yet, it is the diligent hands of skilled craftswomen that bring this intricate embroidery to life. The entire collection of twenty pieces demands a dedicated two-month crafting process, involving a minimum of three embroiderers. They meticulously carry out their work in a semi-bent position, a posture sustained for no more than two hours at a stretch.

Inspired by urban, modern aesthetics, this set embodies sophisticated decoration, with design at its core, becoming the focal point of its inherent elegance. Gray petals and black leaves seamlessly blend urban sophistication with a floral touch, offering a dual experience that can transport us to the serene beauty of a cold winter, where white snow blankets the landscape, creating a transparent ambiance warmed by the comforting glow of a hearth.
OCHER SET
A design inspired by the enchanting hues of autumn, featuring a palette of rich browns, earthy tones, and golden accents, capturing the essence of aging beauty that remains utterly captivating. It draws us into the embrace of wood, the essence of nature, and the imagery of falling leaves —those remnants of time that, though withered, have taken on a new form of embellishment.
Within the confines of a warm and cozy room, numerous wooden elements infuse the atmosphere with a comforting embrace. An oak table, complemented by chairs, placemats, and napkins, artfully frame the setting for a delightful occasion. The dark brown wicker basket holding the bread becomes a part of a well-thought-out composition, harmonizing with the embroidered cushions adorned in a palette of gold, brown, light brown, dark brown, deep gold, and antique gold.
