Declan - Guatemalan Textile + Vintage African Indigo Pillow

$70.00 CAD

The front of this colourful pillow is made from a handwoven Guatemalan corte with a jaspe design and vintage, handwoven and hand-dyed African indigo. A corte is a traditional Maya skirt, which is traditionally woven on a foot loom. The two ends of the rectangular cloth are then sewn together to form a "tube-shaped" wrap-around skirt. A randa, or colourful band of embroidery, is often added to cover the seam. Some of these beautiful and intricate textiles can take months to make. The cloth that makes up the indigo fabric is first handwoven in strips and then sewn together to form the larger textile. This larger piece is then hand-dyed in indigo, which makes each piece unique! The backing of the pillow is a natural-coloured cotton and has an envelope enclosure.

INSERT SIZE: 16 x 16" (pillow cover is slightly smaller)

COLOURS: blue, green, red, taupe, beige

PILLOW INSERT IS INCLUDED (fluffy, hypoallergenic, synthetic down alternative insert which has similar loft to down but is made with microfiber so doesn't have actual feathers potentially poking you). This means it will be ready to add colour to your home straight from the box! 

Made with love on the westcoast of Canada :)


*Due to the handmade nature of the textile, there might be slight imperfections. All textiles/pillows have been carefully inspected and any major issues will have been noted in the description/photos.
