I don't think the background does this any justice. Some side lighting would show more detail and shadow. It appears that you used flash or direct light instead.
nice still life :) In this particular image, I believe that a darker background would work better. This would offer a greater contrast between your subject and the background. - jmsetzler
The shadow is distracting and the pillow you used for the background isn't filling the entire background. I would suggest using a larger background, like a bed sheet, and place it in the distance. That way, shadows are less likely to line up the way they do here, and you can use depth of field to blur out any "imperfections" like wrinkles.
Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject. Composition - good. background upper right is poor Technical Aspects - quite good Meets Challenge - yes Visual Impact / Originality - good
