Someone else's heirloom. Now yours.
We cut up things your museum wouldn't dare touch.
Pillows and accessories made from antique saris, kimonos, and rare textiles from around the world. Each one made once, and rather well.
What We Make
Every piece begins with a textile that has already been somewhere. A silk sari woven in Benares for a ceremony we'll never know about. An obi from a Kyoto workshop that outlasted the workshop. A fragment of kantha stitched by hands that didn't know we'd find it a century later.
We track these things down, learn them properly, and then, with a certain amount of nerve, make something new from them. Without erasing what they were.
Textiles that have
lived other lives
Each piece is made once. There are no restocks, and we find that quite enough.
New Arrivals
A vintage obi, cut from its original life and given a new one. The fabric is all geometry and flowers, bold black hexagons framing silk-woven medallions in coral, sage, powder blue, and ivory, finished with a burnt orange bullion fringe that refuses to be subtle. Lumbar. One of a kind. Already plotting where it wants to live.
The Atelier
Every piece is
made by hand
(And yes, it takes as long as you'd think.)
We source antique and vintage textiles from markets, estates, and private collections across Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Each one gets cleaned, assessed, and properly understood before anything else happens. Some pieces we hold for months. The ones that become pillows are cut, backed, and sewn by hand. Nothing is wasted. Every fragment is considered. It is, frankly, an unreasonable amount of effort, and entirely the point.
