A Celebration of Peace and Humanity: The Nobel Peace Prize Cushion Collection

The Nobel Prize stands as one of the most prestigious honors in the world, recognizing individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to humanity. In 1984, the South African Post Office paid tribute to the nation’s Nobel laureates by featuring them on a series of stamps. Among these, the Peace Prize winners hold a special place in history – symbols of courage, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of justice.

We are proud to present a collection that celebrates these icons of peace. Each cushion showcases an original stamp from this historic series, carefully preserved and framed with care. Alongside these vintage stamps, we’ve created limited-edition printed cushions inspired by their designs, allowing you to own a piece of South Africa’s inspiring journey toward freedom and equality.

Honoring South Africa’s Nobel Peace Laureates:

• Albert Luthuli (1898–1967): The first African to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in 1961, Luthuli was a beacon of non-violent resistance against apartheid. As president of the African National Congress, he dedicated his life to justice and human dignity.
• Desmond Tutu (1931–2021): Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984, Tutu was a tireless advocate for human rights and used his voice to campaign for the oppressed. His legacy as the “Archbishop of Joy” continues to inspire millions worldwide.
• Nelson Mandela (1918–2013): A global symbol of hope and reconciliation, Mandela shared the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize with FW de Klerk for their pivotal roles in ending apartheid and laying the foundation for a democratic South Africa.
• Frederik Willem de Klerk (1936–2021): Together with Mandela, de Klerk was awarded the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to dismantle apartheid and transition South Africa toward a new era of peace and unity.

These cushions are more than décor – they are a tribute to the courage and vision of these extraordinary individuals. By bringing these pieces into your home, you honor their legacy and celebrate the values they stood for: peace, justice, and the belief in a better future for all.

Each cushion is crafted with care, reflecting the spirit of South Africa’s struggle and triumph. Whether displayed in your living space or gifted to someone who shares your admiration for these heroes, these cushions serve as a daily reminder of the power of peace and the resilience of the human spirit.
