Memories of Shalimar ~ Asian Green Floral Euro Pillow Sham Cover 26x26

Rest your head on Memories of Shalimar shams and allow the fragrance of dew laden petals amidst a haze of liquid gold lull you into deep sleep. Euro shams create a dramatic look and can be placed on the bed closest to the headboard, or on the floor as extra seating. Pair them with pillow shams for the "ensemble" look, and make them the focal point of your bedding.

Each is 26 inches square. Printed on preshrunk, superior grade, soft cotton, each European sham is exquisitely finished with neatly interlocked seams and a generous, immaculately tailored flap closure at the back (inserts not included).

Each piece is handcrafted using intricately hand carved wooden blocks and is an original work of art distinguished by the work of the artisan, the particular lot of dye, and even varying weather conditions. Tonal variations are inherent to the block printing process and enhance the individuality, character and uniqueness of each creation.

Inspiration for Memories of Shalimar: Reminiscent of a journey long ago, Memories of Shalimar conjures up images of walking through the magnificent Shalimar Gardens at dawn when the sun rays begin to warm up the earth, and set aglow remnants of the morning mist. Fragrant dew laden petals shimmer a soft liquid gold as a gentle breeze carries aloft a whiff of attars and perfumed silks from the palace. The interplay between the warm sun kissed meadow green ground and the dark sensual stylized fan like oriental floral motifs rendered in deep midnight blue, bitter chocolate and outlined with a gold metallic paste, gives Memories of Shalimar an aura of resplendent radiance.
