18 inch Atlas Throw Pillow with Hand Embroidered Wool Design
A Rather Splendid Cushion with Genuine Tunisian Craftsmanship
Here's the thing about throw pillows: most are utterly forgettable. This one, however, is rather different. We've sourced something genuinely marvellous from a small group of women artisans in Tunis who pour their considerable talents into each piece. Hand-woven cotton, embellished with striking black wool embroidery and finished with petite tassels that give it just the right amount of personality without being precious about it.
Why Choose Our Throw Pillow
Authentically Handcrafted: Each pillow is carefully spun, woven and embroidered by skilled women in Tunisia's capital, meaning no two are entirely identical and your cushion carries genuine artisan value.
Thoughtfully Made Cover: The 18 by 18 inch cover features a proper zipper closure, making it beautifully practical when you inevitably spill your coffee.
Quality Filled Insert: Comes with a pillow form made in the USA using high thread count covering and hypoallergenic polycotton filling, so it's rather lovely to rest your head on.
Berber Heritage Design: Drawing from Tunisia's rich cultural traditions, the geometric patterns are rather fabulous and work splendidly in almost any room.
Product Details

A properly made piece like this doesn't come along often. If you're after something with genuine character and a story worth telling, this is rather your sort of thing.
Rather wonderfully, you’re buying directly from our brand partners: a lovely bunch of independent makers who pack and post every order themselves, from their own workshops, with tracking.
Each one sets its own postage, shown before you pay, and looks after any duties in its own way. Order from three brands and three parcels will arrive, which we prefer to think of as a birthday that lasts most of the week.
Within the UK: 2 to 5 business days
From further afield: 7 to 14 days, and frequently rather quicker
Returns go straight back to the brand that sent them, who will be delighted to help. As, frankly, will we.
Fourteen days from delivery to tell us you’ve changed your mind, and fourteen more to get it on its way back. No reason required, and we certainly won’t ask for one.
Do open it and try it on. Handle it as you would in a shop and we won’t quibble. Handle it as you would a rental car and we may deduct something for the difference.
Return postage is yours to pay, because the brand at the other end is a workshop rather than a warehouse. Some brands kindly cover it themselves, and if yours does, you won’t be charged. Whatever you paid us to send it out, we refund either way, and the money goes back the way it came within fourteen days of the parcel reaching the brand, or of you showing us proof of postage, whichever comes first.
A few things are made to stay with you: anything made or personalised to your order, sealed beauty products once the seal is broken, and anything perishable.
If something arrives damaged, faulty or not quite as described, none of the above applies. It costs you nothing, and we’ll sort it.
Simply email mail@brixbailey.com and we’ll guide you through it.
Lovingly packed and posted by Creative Women themselves, with tracking. Each brand sends its own parcel, with postage shown before you pay. Changed your mind? Fourteen days, no reason required, and returns go straight back to Creative Women, with us on hand to guide you. Delivery & returns
