We love stripes and handwoven pagne tissé and this cushion has them all! It’s a striking orange hue that would sit well as a feature cushion, combined with other pagne tissé cushions or with our linen Os de Chameau cushion. Finished with a delicate grey trim and a complimentary off white linen back. 

About the fabric

Pagne Tissé - handwoven fabric on traditional looms from the Manjak people of Southern Senegal and Northern Guinea. The beauty in this rich and complex weave lies not only in its look and feel, but also in knowing the exceptional amount of time it take to produce. It takes three days to set up the loom, connecting the hundreds of threads to make up the intricate design and then two weavers to manage it. An experienced weaver will take a day to weave 3-5 meters. It’s labour intensive art form that is becoming increasingly rare, a fading tradition that Tisserand Dakar seeks to promote and preserve with their beautiful and unique fabric lines.
