Our custom-made pillows have a hidden zipper closure along one side. This makes the pillow more versatile than a traditional envelope-closure, because either side can be used as the front. The case is easily removable for cleaning. The size indicated is the size of the case. Our fluffy pillow insert is a down feather blend and is intentionally an inch or two larger than the case for maximum puffiness.
Alpine Tulip is an example of a tessellated repeat, where the negative space between motifs is the same shape as the motif itself.
Schwarzenbach & Co was founded in Thalwil, Switzerland in 1829. They specialized in weaving silk jacquard patterns.
By 1928, Schwarzenbach & Co occupied an art deco office building on Park Avenue in Manhattan. The clock on the outside of the building animates each hour with a wizard spinning silk.
Schwarzenbach & Co. was founded in Thalwil, Switzerland in 1829. They were known for weaving silk in jacquard patterns. The family business grew into one of the world’s largest silk producers throughout the 20th century. The company expanded to New York City in the 1920s, but they maintained a lakeside villa in their Swiss hometown, which now houses a music school. The Swiss National Museum in Zurich now houses a collection of Schwarzenbach’s designs.
The inspiration for Alpine Tulip was found on the backside of another artwork, crossed through with a red crayon. We like to imagine the red mark was made by the artist’s children, seeking to add their own flair to the doodle! The pattern is an example of a tessellating repeat, where the negative space inbetween motifs is the same shape as the motif itself. The pattern’s name nods to the mountain range which crosses through Switzerland, the origin of this print’s inspiration.
