Pillow covers are accessories to pillows, just as scarves enhance the beauty and charm of a woman's wardrobe. Whether placed on an armchair, sofa, couch, or bed these exquisite pillow covers can add a modern or traditional touch to any space.
Featured here are silk and brocade throw pillow covers from Banaras where renowned weavers create saris and silk cushion covers. These pillow covers are available in standard sizes of 16x16 or 18x18 inches. What makes these home essentials unique is the quality of their craftsmanship. These cushion covers and pillow cases boast of natural materials which are woven in a stylized and decorative manner. The process of producing them is in itself an art form. After the essence of the pattern to be used has been assimilated, the designer or artist will then implement his or her stylish interpretation. For instance, a simple leaf can evolve into a full bloom flower or an exotic bird form. Other decorative patterns and motifs such as fruits, creepers, and other animals are used without breaking the symmetry of the pattern. The highly skilled and artistic weavers of Banaras will always consider the proper usage of the available spaces between patterns. These craftsmen are adventurous and will constantly introduce geometrical patterns without disrupting harmony and balance of all motifs.
So if you want to give your bedroom or living room space a magnificent Asian or country style that is elegant, treat yourself to Banaras cushion covers and pillow cases.
