This Hand-woven wicker Cradle is from Nume who believe in “intelligent furniture”. The oval shape is a throwback to 19^th century wooden cradles and Nume stresses on both style and functionality. The cradle complies with European norms: UNI EN, and wad subject to laboratory testing on safety, resiliency and product life.

The Rojo-throw pillow reminds me of the Seventies as it has a very East Indian and Retro vibe to it. Available from KMP furniture, the pillow is retailing for $49.00 and is made out of a combination of100% cotton, polyester, rayon, viscose or nylon.
