        We have different bolster pillow models including evil eye pillows which eels like corduroy, made of 20% cotton, 28% polyester, 44% chenille, 8% acrylic. Belief in the effects of the eye, or more correctly the glance or stare of envy and malice, are probably the oldest and widespread belief throughout the world. The earliest written references to the ‘evil eye’ occur on Sumerian clay tablets dating to the third millennium BC. Agate beads of exceptional quality, worn to protect the wearer from the influence of the evil eye were also discovered in the royal Sumerian graves at Ur. The most popular among Turkish peoples is the ‘eye’ symbol itself, usually made from blue glass. It appears frequently on home accessories to protect the home and on jewelry to protect the wearer. The idea is that the best defense against the ‘evil eye’ is the unflinching stare of another ‘eye’. Our evil eye bolster pillows would be the ideal decorating item for your new home,protecting you from the evil stare of others. These bolster pillows can also be presented as gift to friends and family.Wool, cotton, polyeser and chenille are the primary material used to make our bolster pillows and bolster pillow covers. The popularity of wool bolster pillows is due to its inherent qualities. It is supple, durable, handles easily when spun or woven, readily takes on dyes and, most important, is in plentiful supply in kilim-making regions. There are certain breeds of sheep, like the merino, whose fleece is especially sought-after for its special luster and length of fiber, commonly used in some of our bolster pillows, but actually it's the domestic fat-tailed sheep bred is favorable climatic and grazing conditions that provides much of the excellent fleece used in bolster pillows.
        One other bolster pillow design we have is the he red tulip, the 'flower of blood' or the'flower of suffering', was a symbol of the soul in search of the Divine in the early Ottoman Empire. Originally growing wild in Central Asia, tulips were brought to Asia Minor by the Seljuks and adorned the palatial gardens of Ottoman Turkey. The interest in raising tulips was shared by many people, including the dignitaries, even the Sultan himself. The cult of tulip in Turkey reached a peak under Sultan Ahmet III (1673-1736); this period (1703-1730) was later named 'The Tulip Era'. Our bolster pillows are inspired from that famous era. From price registers it appears that extremely rare types of bulbs could be valued up to 500-1000 gold coins. They were one of the most popular subjects for decoration of textiles, bolster pillows, pottery and other objects during the 15th -17th centuries and, along with carnations, are thought to symbolize fertility.
