Dr. O, Anuar Khalifi Pillow

An edition of one pillow uses two of the iconic Moroccan artist Anuar Khalifi's award-winning paintings, including Smelfie (2021) as inspiration. 

Handmade in a gentle brushed velvet, these are living paintings made into furniture, decorations and more. The first in a series with two larger cushions to follow.
