Description
ORIGIN & MATERIAL
This cushion is made from an antique hand woven french “Sac de Meunier” (flour bag), made by hemp, dyed in an earthy chocolate color. Those bag were used to carry wheat and flour in the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century, and used by farmers. This particular bag has been restored many times, I kept it in its condition of origin in order to give unicity to the piece. The small irregularities and imperfections that this cushion might have is the result of its manual manufacturing process and part of its charm. Traces of usage are part of the natural characteristic of all our vintage textile and its history.
This piece is very rare and unique.
Handmade with love in Belgium. Please also handle with love and care.

PHILOSOPHY
All my creations are unique, entirely handmade, with vintage hemp found in Europe and more particularly in France and in the eastern Europe countries.
All the hemp pieces sourced are on average between 50 and 120 years old.
Once the hemp piece is cleaned and prepared, I decide either to keep it natural or to dye it in organic and natural, earthy colors.
My signature: to sublimate a defect in the material, a seam, a weaving defect, a patch…
Sensitive to the protection of our environment, and the questioning of overabundance and superfluity, I work in a sustainable and upcylcing approach.
My goal is to give a second life to high quality fabrics, hand woven in an ancestral way, to pay tribute to the work of man.
Buy it if you heartily share this philosophy with us.
