Pair of Throw Pillow Covers - Hmong Embroidered Story Cloth

Nice pair of matching square throw pillow covers featuring handmade Hmong story cloth textile panels with embroidered everyday village scenes. Light blue reverse appliqué border on ivory ground. Hmong women developed the folk art of embroidered story cloths, which depicted pastoral Hmong life before the war, Hmong legends, or harrowing tales of forced migration as a way to remember. Solid ivory backing with zip closures. 16” square. PLEASE NOTE: a couple of small spots (see details), otherwise good preowned from smoke free storage.
