This pillow is from Spain - it is the traditional
pillow from the area around Barcelona.  It is used in
an upright position, usually on a stand.  PLEASE do
not take the information sent to ebay seriously - it
even made ME de-lurk!

My guess is Spain.  The bobbins are like the ones I have that were labled 
Spanish bobbins.  I know I've seen pictures of these long narrows bolster 
pillows before but they are nothing like the Slovenia pillow and bobbins I 
have.
