JAHAN — “Riwaq” Hand-Embroidered Cashmere Cushion
A quiet expression of heritage craftsmanship and timeless design, the Riwaq Cushion from the Jahan Collection brings texture, rhythm, and understated elegance into the home.
Crafted in 100% cashmere wool, Riwaq features an intricately hand-embroidered repeating motif inspired by the ornamental symmetry found in Mughal and Indo-Persian architecture. The name Riwaq, referring to the arched colonnades and corridors often seen in traditional Islamic and Mughal architecture, reflects the cushion’s rhythmic geometric composition and architectural character. Reminiscent of carved stonework, decorative tile patterns, and hand-drawn architectural detailing, the design evokes a refined balance between structure and softness.
Rendered in a muted palette of grey and ivory, the cushion lends a calm, elevated presence while allowing the richly textured embroidery to remain the focal point.
Each cushion is meticulously handcrafted by artisans, making every piece subtly unique. Designed to layer beautifully across sofas, beds, reading corners, and lounge spaces, Riwaq offers warmth, texture, and artisanal character within both contemporary and heritage-inspired interiors.
The cushion comes complete with a plush insert for added comfort and structure.
