The cushion "Les Sportifs" is based on the work of Kasimir Malevich, the artist behind the artistic movement "Suprematism".
Kasimir Severinovich Malevich was born in Kiev in 1879. An avant-garde painter, draftsman, sculptor and art theorist, his pioneering work had a profound influence on the development of abstract art in the 20th century. Malevich developed an approach that explored the use of pure geometric forms and the relationships between them, set against minimal backgrounds.
For four generations, the family firm founded in 1878 by Jules Pansu has carried on the centuries-old tradition of Gobelins and Aubusson tapestries. Pioneers in the use of Joseph Marie Jacquard's mechanical loom, they demonstrate enviable continuity, reinventing and adapting over time.
Since 2012, the Jules Pansu workshops have been considered "Living Heritage" by the French State, a mark of recognition that distinguishes French companies with craft know-how and industrial excellence.
All Jules Pansu cushions are entirely woven and manufactured in the Les Tissages de la Lys workshops located in Northern France. Made in jacquard weave, they are rich in relief and texture.
