Pillowcase 3050 cm – “Josephina” striped in green

This beautiful cushion cover from A World of Craft is hand-woven in Guatemala by small local families working with traditional weaving techniques that have been passed down through the generations. Here, Swedish design meets the strong craft traditions of the Maya people, and the result is pillowcases with lots of colour, structure and personality.

A World of Craft works according to fair trade principles and collaborates directly with local craftsmen and family-owned workshops. This means that production takes place in a more responsible way, where the craftsmen are given proper conditions, and where the traditional craft is at the same time preserved and continued.

Each pillowcase is woven by hand, and therefore there may be slight variations in colours, patterns and weaves. This is not a mistake, but a natural part of the charm of handmade textiles. The small differences make each pillowcase unique.

Only a limited number of meters of each design are woven, and the collections change with new colors and patterns approximately every 34 months. This also means that many designs won’t come back once they’re sold out.

The pillowcase is perfect for those who want to create a colorful and personal home with products where quality, craftsmanship and history are allowed to fill.
