TULIP CHERRY WOOD PIN CUSHION - AKABENI (VERMILION RED)

These Tulip Cherry wood pin cushions will make a great addition to any sewing room and project.  Not only are they beautiful in looks but beautifully and thoughtfully made.

Tulip have created these to represent the 12 months of the year - Akabeni represents January when everyone becomes excited about the new year.  Akibeni (Vermilion), a red variety believed as a colour that can avert evil and as brilliant as the sunrise on a New Years day. 

As the material for the pincushion base, Tulip have selected gentle-looking cherry wood from various kinds of wood. Giving importance to maintaining a texture and appearance unique to the natural material, they have designed the base to be comfortable to the touch and provide steadiness for your needlework.

For the cloth and padding Tulip have placed the highest priority on having needles go smoothly into the pin cushion and have selected thick, high-quality cotton sheeting as cloth. With a very smooth and soft texture, the cloth helps you easily insert needles into the pincushion.  They have also carefully selected the padding material to prevent your needles from rusting even during long-term use.
