Pretty pillows from de le Cuona

World traveler Bernie de Le Cuona started her eponymous linen company in her kitchen in 1992. She now has showrooms in London, Russia and on the 9th floor of the DDB. She's expanded into a range of alpaca wools and has launched a collection of pillows with beautiful detailing, including intricate metal work, always remaining true to the serene, very livable palette for which she is known.

de Le Cuona's Spring Accessories Collection Gets Funky

de Le Cuona was inspired this Spring to bring out their wild side! They're using bold statement pieces in mismatched prints and colors, all while continuing to add a wide range of neutrals to their newest accessories collection.


"The accessories collection embraces English eccentricity with thick wool paisleys and mad patchwork blankets," said Bernie de Le Cuona, founder and CEO of the brand. “But it still maintains a relaxed domestic look of neutral, understated linens in earthy tones."


Floppy stone-washed linen cushions in whites and greys provide strong basics for a scheme while shearling black fur cushions are the interior’s answer to current fashion trends. The felt cushions have taken de Le Cuona's paisleys to a new level by using a more heavily textured wool fabric to give the patterns a 3-D look. They also mixed pattern and color for throws and cushions with various tartans, herringbones and paisleys used together for a much funkier take on a classical English look.
