Made to Measure Paisley Cushions

Made to Measure Designer Cushions

We have two paisley designs in a wide selection of colours:  Life and Eternityand Paisley Ground.

Paisley is a vegetal motif, often shaped like a droplet or kidney bean. The Paisley patterned fabric originates from stylised pine cones from Kashmir. From roughly 1800 to 1850, the weavers of the town of Paisley in Renfrewshire, Scotland, became the foremost producers of Paisley shawls.

The origins of the curved teardrop form, come from the area between India and Iran, (known there as buta and boteh respectively); however, the word ‘paisley’ refers to the town of Paisley in Scotland. The transfer from Persian and Kashmiri cultures to become a popular motif in woven textile manufacturing in Britain came after the East India Company imported large amounts of shawls and other goods with the motif in the 18th Century.
