About the Item
Title:
Vintage Oscar de la Renta pink silk scarf with Irish linen cushion pillow pink
Description:
Custom made one-of-a-kind set (which can be bought separately) of luxury cushions / pillows created from an exquisite silk ‘O Oscar by Oscar de la Renta' fashion scarf in opulent pink, purple, yellow ochre and multicolour stylised shells pattern. The forms fan out segmented into different colours of neutrals and blue greens in a style almost alluding to Art Deco.
Óscar Arístides Renta Fiallo, known professionally as Oscar de la Renta, was a Dominican American fashion designer and his fashion house continues to dress leading figures, from film stars to royalty. Trained by Cristóbal Balenciaga (also see our Balenciaga pillows), he worked for he worked for Lanvin (also see our Lanvin pillows) and Balmain (also see our Balmain pillows) before going on to become internationally known in the 1960s as one of the couturiers who dressed Jacqueline Kennedy. At the age of 19 he studied painting at the Academy of San Fernando in Madrid and for extra money ended up drawing clothes for newspapers and fashion houses, the U.S. Ambassador to Spain saw some of his dress sketches, she commissioned de la Renta to design a gown for her daughter and he quickly became interested in the world of fashion design. Known for his elaborate show stopping wedding gowns. His work is often characterised by feminine, pretty, flattering and embellished qualities. The brand expanded to introduce a homewares line in 2002 but what makes our cushions so special is that it is unique and a one off and created from a luxury unused silk fashion scarf. It would look fabulous in a seaside home or one with a beach house themed nautical as well as an ornate rococo style interior.
The fabric was personally hand-picked by Katie at antiques market ‘Marche aux Puces Saint-Ouen’ on the outskirts of Paris.
On a sumptuous thick silk soft to the touch.
Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, lined in a layer of natural bamboo cloth, filled with new custom-made plush duck feather insert and a concealed zip. The traditional oatmeal color linen is a combination of the unbleached raw colour of the natural flax plant on the weft intertwined with pristine white on the warp, resulting in a beautiful melange effect.
Contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with antique elements by using fragments of precious fabric.
Handcrafted in Ireland

Gaining notability for her unique idea and creations back in 2013 - featured in the likes of the Financial Times, and first selling here on 1stdibs in 2016 - our creations are of the absolute top most quality, craftsmanship and finesse. Thank-you for looking. Title: Vintage Hermes Equestrian Silk Scarf and Irish Linen Cushion Pillow The ‘crème de la crème’ of scarves, this beauty is a one-of-a-kind luxury cushion (pillow) created from an exquisite vintage silk Hermes fashion scarf in their festive ‘Les Rubans Du Cheval’ equestrian pattern by Joachim Metz in 1988. A variety of elaborate ribbon rosettes in vibrant, colourful hues - an ornament made of pleated material, gathered so as to resemble a rose and worn as a decorative badge to show ranking in a competition. The French company began in 1837 producing superior quality leather goods, harnesses and saddles, which makes sense that 100 years later the main theme on their luxury scarves is equestrian. Hermes scarves, known as ‘carre’ (squares), have become a symbol of French chic and are a highly desirable object across the globe that still continues to delight. Favoured by the ‘jet-setters’ of the 50s and 60s and gaining iconic status by Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and this particular elegant design even worn by Queen Elizabeth II. The name of the print along with the brand’s signature proudly features in the centre. The attractive equestrian design is a delicately detailed illustration of bridal equipment with buckles, leather straps, feminine mermaids holding up functional hoops and lions holding crests on other sections of the metal hardware adorning the elaborate piece. It features a display of two equestrian horse bride dressings symmetrical like a mirror image of each other. In a dramatic, busy picture of multicoloured ribbon colour way on a quality sumptuous twill silk with a beautiful texture. It was made using the ‘Lyonnaise technique’ silk screen process with each of it’s 13 frames traditional laid one by one by hand (the more complex patterns can go out to 42). Before being carefully unravelled to create our cushion, the edge was delicately hand rolled and hemmed, a distinctive French style finish of all Hermes scarves. We also have a couple of other similar stunning Hermes scarf cushions...Category
