Pair of 1920s Fortuny Fabric Pillows Depicting Pomegranates and Artichokes

  
Pair of Fortuny early 1920s fabric with his signature pomegranate design inspired by a 15th century Italian silk velvet. A ground of deep forest green with hints of blue and an overlay of gold metallic depicting artichokes and pomegranates.

The old method of applying the metallic is not as thick and chunky as modern metallic. The older method is much thinner since it was hand applied and the metallic on these pillows is light. Backed with deep taupe designer silk velvet, finished with a metallic gold cording that has developed a deep dark rich patina. The fabric design on these pillows is perfectly matched.
