These are relatively new, were in my friend’s guest bedroom. My friend’s employer moved her to a different city with short notice, so she decided to not pay to ship anything she could buy in the new city. These are some of the things she left for me, but I don’t have a guest room. I’m posting this so someone else can enjoy them instead of them ending up getting in the way and being tossed into the dumpster. Buy one or both, your choice.
They are not faded or stained or damaged in any way. They are each 18” square, +/- 5” thick; firm, not flimsy. They were not used as bed/sleeping pillows, just as décor items.

This is a nice square gray pillow with small white raised polka dots on it. They’re really not Swiss dots, because the cloth is more sturdy, but they’re not really French knots, either, because they’re not knots even though they’re raised more than the Swiss dots. They’re also not flocked dots, because they are sown in, not glued on. (Yes, my mom was a seamstress, but I wanted the posting to show the dots are raised, not printed, just can’t find the right term.)

This one is a nice solid red with a geometric-type needlepoint design and corner tassels. The tassels are not damaged and all of the stitching is complete.
I was surprised when I looked online to find what new square polka dot pillows and new square red needlepoint pillows with corner tassels cost. I found they range from $25 for the really small up to $200+, just for this size, not the huge ones. Amazing. Then you have to add the shipping fee. The average range seems to be $28-46.
