Multicoloured Hand Embroidered Pouffe

This features an entire herbaceous border of multi-coloured flowers in lime, emerald, two shades of hot pink, jade, turquoise, lilac, magenta and smoky blue-grey, which almost smother the heavy ivory ground.

The fun icing on this exuberant circular Pouffe is a fringe of pompoms in all nine colours for extra vavavoom.

Poufs are always so useful - as somewhere to perch, somewhere to prop up your feet, somewhere to rest a tray, somewhere to dump your files and your coat, somewhere to seat that extra guest...

It's a cool, modern update on that Victorian classic of the tapestry-upholstered seat in Pouffe form !

It is nearly completely covered with embroidery, done in chain stitch on a hand-held machine using the traditional technique used for centuries.
