{"product_id":"naga-indigo-fusion-backstrap-woven-blue-and-white-cushion-cover","title":"Naga Indigo Fusion Backstrap-Woven Blue and White Cushion Cover","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWoven on a backstrap loom in Nagaland, in India's Northeast, by tribal women weavers carrying forward a tradition that predates colonial contact. Blue and white is not a common palette in Naga tribal weaving, this piece sits at the edge of tradition, where the weaver has made a choice about color that is hers alone. The intricate geometric pattern is built directly into the cotton warp.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNagaland's backstrap loom weavers are among the most technically precise textile makers in India, the body-tensioned loom requires absolute control, and the geometric patterns they produce in cotton yarn have no tolerance for approximation. This blue and white cushion cover carries a pattern that is woven in, not embroidered or printed: the design forms in the weave structure itself, visible from both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blue-and-white palette places this piece in an unusual position within the Naga tradition, it references both the tribal design vocabulary of the Northeast and something closer to indigo-and-resist textile traditions from elsewhere in India. It is a border object, which is part of its interest. On a shelf or a reading chair, it looks deliberate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackstrap Loom Woven · Naga Geometric · Nagaland · Pure Cotton\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCotton\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe Living Room\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine wash cold, gentle cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove cushion insert before washing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWash separately for first two washes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not bleach.
