The entire Fou Furnishings collection is made from 100% organic cotton, in the finest quality yarn and fabrics.
100% organic cotton, certified according to the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), has been selected where available, Â as this certification provides assurance that the cotton used retains its natural qualities, from its origin, through processing and manufacturing to the final product.
The Fou Furnishings’ Boutis are beautifully crafted timeless pieces including:
A richly textured Bedspread with Matching Cushion Covers (pictured here) in a soft cream, edged with ribbon; made with 100% organic cotton from long staple Egyptian yarn.
Woven, dyed and finished in Italy, echoing its original roots and today certified by the UK Soil Association.
The dye used to colour the fabric is of vegetable origin and all treatments used in the finishing process are biodegradable.
Fou Furnishings’ organic cotton Zafferano Boutis, is the result of refining the traditional Boutis technique, that today blends historical craftsmanship with modern technology, to create rich, substantial texture and contemporary design which could grace any room.
The Boutis bedspread and matching cushion cover, measure a generous 260cm by 260cm (£195) and the cushion cover 40cm by 40cm. (£24).
Traditional Boutis is a unique, quilted fabric, usually cotton, which was worked on both sides by expert fingers, embroidering carefully chosen symbolic motifs such as hearts, animals and flowers to carry a message of happiness, luck and prosperity; initially for clothing then for bedspreads and cushion covers.
