Who doesn’t love a bit of sparkle and gold? From beadwork to zari lace, this scatter cushion celebrates the range of embroidery and fabrics India has to offer whilst instantly adding glitz and glamour to any room.

Bring out a pair along with your fancy plates during those special occasions and impress guests with its dazzling beauty. However, they can just as easily become a permanent feature in your living room or bedroom for a daily dose of glamour.

Beautifully-stitched by Waseem from New Delhi in India, this technique involves extensive needlework. Embroidery is a popular craft in India and dates back to 2000 BC – the method has been adapted and passed down many generations. However, artisans specialising in this craft are rapidly being replaced by the increase of machine-made alternatives.

Beadwork in India is said to be over 5000 years old. Historically, beads were made out of silver, gold, clay, ivory and wood. Now, India is one of the largest producers of beads in the world.

Made with water-resistant polyester, this cushion is delicately embroidered using strips of zari lace, velvet and beadwork to create a luxurious-looking design. It also includes a zip fastening on reverse.

• This cover fits a 14 x 20 inch insert. For a plump, full look we recommend going up to a 16 x 22 inch pad.
• Hand wash in cool water only.
• Do not machine wash - this will damage the embroidery.
• Reshape and lay flat to dry naturally.
• Do not tumble dry or wring.
• Iron on a low heat, inside out, once dry.
• Zip up before washing to protect the fabric.
