Colourful blocks. Beautiful stripes. And a combination we’re very happy with.

Meet MOSAÏK MAUVE, a small collection of reversible Moroccan cushions made during our October 2026 sourcing trip in Marrakech.

Shaggy boucherouite colour blocks meet a striped kilim in a beautiful mix of mauve, pink, lilac, mint, turquoise and blue. Creamy tones soften the colours, while dark lines bring the two textiles together.

For our custom collections, we sometimes use the same textile on both sides, sometimes a neutral cotton canvas reverse. But our favourite part is bringing unexpected pieces together.

Our founder personally selects these combinations, laying textiles side by side until that little “ooh, these two together” moment happens.
This was absolutely one of those combinations!

TWO TEXTILES, SO MANY WAYS TO COMBINE THEM

What we love about MOSAÏK MAUVE is how beautifully the two textiles work together.

The boucherouite has irregular blocks of colour, framed by dark lines. Its shaggy fabric strips give it plenty of texture, with little differences in every section.

The striped kilim brings those colours back in a different rhythm: narrow and wider stripes, a flatter weave and a softer overall look.

Choose Mix for blocks on one side and stripes on the other, or Stripes for striped kilim on both sides.

Put the blocks beside the stripes, show only the blocks, or turn everything to the striped side. Honestly, we love all three.

They work beautifully together on a sofa or bench, with enough colour and variation to keep the arrangement relaxed.

Sold separately, beautiful together.

PERSONALLY COMBINED, HANDMADE IN MARRAKECH

MOSAÏK MAUVE began with two existing textiles, selected through Simo and personally paired by our founder.

Finding the fabrics is only part of the fun. Putting them next to each other, imagining the front and reverse, and then seeing the finished cushions come back from the atelier — that’s a very happy part of creating our custom collections.

The selected textiles were transformed into cushion covers by our trusted maâlem Ayoub in Marrakech.

Ten cushions combine the boucherouite with the striped kilim. Two more use the striped kilim on both sides, making lovely companions to the mixed pieces.

Each cover was cut from a different section of the original textiles, giving every cushion its own arrangement of colours and patterns.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Professional textile cleaning recommended.

Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as the repurposed textiles may contain different fibres and respond differently to washing.

For small marks, gently dab with a soft cloth and a little cold water, testing an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking or rubbing.

Do not pull on the shaggy fabric strips or loose threads. Protect from prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve the colours.

HANDMADE CHARACTER

Each MOSAÏK MAUVE cushion is individually made from repurposed Moroccan textiles.

Variations in colour, weave, texture and pattern placement are part of the collection. Some cushions show more pink or lilac, while others feature larger sections of mint, turquoise or blue.

Irregular fabric ends, small signs of previous use and differences in the original weaving belong to the textiles’ character.

The photographs show examples from the collection; the exact arrangement of blocks and stripes may differ from cushion to cushion.

Blocks today. Stripes tomorrow. Or a little of both.
