Large rectangular floral silk Caucasian embroidered cushion on green ground

This exquisite cushion is hand-embroidered in the Caucasus using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Crafted from lustrous silk and dyed exclusively with natural vegetable pigments, it carries a depth of tone and subtlety that only nature can produce.

Unlike Suzani work, the embroidery on this piece reflects an older regional style—more restrained and deeply rooted in the artisanal traditions of the Caucasus. The stitching includes elements of surface darning, a meticulous method where patterns are built up thread by thread on the fabric’s surface. The result is a design that feels both intimate and enduring, with a tactile texture and quiet complexity.
