The Soraya Pillow

€30.00
sold out

Add meaning and brighten up any living space with our pillows! Each piece communicates stories through Semiotics: the art of creating designs inspired by common patterns between different cultures.

Pillow insert not included online.

Dimensions: 50 x 50 cm
Weight: 50 grams

We honour this pattern by deciding to call it ���Soraya���. This pattern was co-created and co-designed by women from diverse backgrounds with at least five different languages spoken between them. "color:#4d5156">The word ���Soraya��� is derived from the Arabic name for the Pleiades, the 7 stars cluster. In Greek mythology, the "color:#5f6368">Pleiades are seven sisters, and daughters of Atlas - who were turned into stars by Zeus.

While stars are single and separate from each other, the Pleiades stand apart from nearly everything else in the night sky by being clustered together, making it one of the brightest star clusters.

Like single stars in the night sky, the women came together and connected despite their different cultures, backgrounds and language barriers, producing this stunning pattern. Soraya commemorates harmony, strength and sisterhood.

Eco-friendly packaging made from recycled paper .

Our hand-made goods help refugee and asylum-seeking women in Greece who are survivors of gender-based violence, both share their stories and build their livelihoods. Every purchase goes directly back to the Pomegranate Project supporting the women refugee community of Athens with shelter, psychosocial support, social work, and a living wage.
