Cristal 610TC Cotton & Silk Jacquard Sham Pair – Peacock Feather Pattern

Description

Amalia Home Collection's Cristal collection takes its peacock-feather motif from the gardens of Porto's Palácio de Cristal. With a front woven as a 610-thread-count cotton-silk jacquard and a reverse of 430-thread-count Giza 94 Egyptian cotton sateen, these shams have a richly textured face and a soft, shifting sheen.

A flange finished with a fine hemstitch frames all four sides of each sham. They dress the pillows at the head of the bed, layered in front of sleeping pillows. Sold as a pair, in Pearl and Amazonite. Made in Portugal.

The Art of Cotton & Silk Jacquard

On a jacquard loom each warp thread can be raised independently, so a pattern is woven into the structure of the cloth rather than printed on its surface. Weaving silk alongside cotton lets the design play with light: the silk catches it, the cotton holds it back, and the motif shifts gently as you move around the bed. Because the pattern is part of the weave, it keeps its depth and definition through years of use.
