VAPI-017
Regular price $390.00An extra-long lumbar pillow crafted from vintage hand-embroidered fabric by the Lakai tribe of Uzbekistan. Once part of a traditional Napramach—quilt storage bags used by nomadic families—this piece features bold, octagonal medallions embroidered in silk thread on a sturdy cotton ground. The motifs, swirling with ancestral symbolism, speak to protection and movement, rooted in the tribe’s equestrian heritage.
Vibrant jewel tones—carnelian, pomegranate, saffron, and sage—infuse the piece with vitality. The back is crafted from textured silk in a warm ochre hue, with a subtle striated pattern that catches the light beautifully. Its uneven surface and tonal variations lend depth and a tactile richness, offering an elegant contrast to the intricate embroidery on the front.
