Named Bissan – an Arabic name meaning “gift,” “blessing,” or “joyful” – this exquisite cushion embodies quiet beauty and serenity. Its deeply peaceful design features blue and green floral motifs on a white ground, with the softest touches of pink. The result is a composition that feels harmonious, balanced, and calming.
Drawing inspiration from traditional Palestinian and Syrian tatreez cross-stitch embroidery, Bissan reinterprets timeless motifs through a refined, contemporary lens. Every inch of the cushion is fully hand-embroidered — even the white sections — creating a sense of depth, texture, and unity. This complete embroidery gives the piece a reassuring weight and presence, a tactile reminder of the care woven into every thread.
Lovingly stitched over six weeks by one of our Syrian refugee artisans, Bissan is both a work of art and a labour of love — a testament to patience, heritage, and quiet joy.
