Shah Jahan on the Peacock Throne
The Peacock Throne was a wonder to behold — a gilded platform, canopied in silk and encrusted in precious jewels. Built in the 17th century for the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, who also commissioned the Taj Mahal, the throne served as yet another reminder of the extravagance of this mid-century ruler of India.
Although the piece only lasted for a short while, its legacy lives on as one of the most ornate and highly sought after pieces of royal property in the region's history. A relic of the Mughal Golden Age, the piece was originally lost and recommissioned before being destroyed forever by rival dynasties and empires.
Each of these limited run pocket squares features original artwork digitally printed on the finest 100% silk, complete with hand rolled edges.
