If you love Ikat and Suzani textiles from East & Central Asia you'll be excited to check out Material Recovery on Etsy. They carry several antique embroidered textiles along with a few vintage and antique pieces of furniture. I selected a few of my faves below...
Take a peek at their shop, the cushions they carry would be a great addition to anyone looking to bring some color into a DRAB looking living room!
Do any of you already own ikat or suzani cushions??
