Kunyu Wanguo Quantu 1602 Japanese World Map Lumbar Pillow
Kunyu Wanguo Quantu (Chinese: 坤輿萬國全圖; pinyin: Kūnyú Wànguó Quántú; literally "A Map of the Myriad Countries of the World"; Italian: Carta Geografica Completa di tutti i Regni del Mondo, "Complete Geographical Map of all the Kingdoms of the World"), printed in China at the request of the Wanli Emperor during 1602 by the Italian Catholic missionary Matteo Ricci and Chinese collaborators, Mandarin Zhong Wentao and the technical translator, Li Zhizao, is the earliest known Chinese world map with the style of European maps. It has been referred to as the Impossible Black Tulip of Cartography, "because of its rarity, importance and exoticism". The map was crucial in expanding Chinese knowledge of the world. It was later exported to Japan and was influential there as well. This work is in the public domain in the United States, and those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 100 years or less. Author Matteo Ricci

I am the designer and I also ordered this pillow for myself. I love it and I want to order more from the series of Henri Rousseau pillows that are in my shop. It's smaller than I thought it would be but I still love it. I need to get the square size next.
The zipper is hidden. Inside the edges are sewn so they won't unravel. It's exceptionally well made and that's rare in today's marketplace. It says something GREAT about products made in the USA. I like that the company is supporting single moms. They're putting their heart and souls into these products. Much gratitude to them for producing quality. It's bright and vibrant. The orange lilies stand out against the darker blues and greens. The back of the pillow with the palm leaves is particularly nice. I need more and I want to order some of the square pillows. These make a room. Love it. It goes well with my orchids.

I love this pillow that is personalized with Mr & Mrs. The quality was upgraded to the cotton and its very nice and durable. This will last for many years to come and the lucky couple will remember how special this is ever time they see it. I love that the color is subtle over the color of the pillow, yet prominent to see the established date of the wedding.
