This piece ships directly from Intertwined for Good in North Carolina.

In its past life, Intertwined's unique handmade throw pillow was a corte - a traditional handwoven Guatemalan Mayan skirt. Now, stone-washed and well-worn, it boasts a softness that's unmatched. The reverse side is made of 100% natural canvas cotton, lovingly sewn by Afghan refugees living in North Carolina. Use it to add a touch of vibrant color to your bed or sofa!

Pillow cover only.

Meet the Artisan

OUR AFGHAN FRIENDS arrived in Greensboro, North Carolina in 2021 from Afghanistan, fleeing the country as refugees when the Taliban resumed power. We cannot use their names because some family members remain in Afghanistan. In Greensboro, they have quickly adjusted to their new lives and have found various jobs to provide additional support to their family. They use their expert seamstress abilities to assemble Intertwined's mixed-textile handmade throw pillows, combining fabrics (vintage and new) from various countries with our signature hemp fabric. They also create our stunning handmade bags from upholstery fabric that would otherwise end up in the landfill.
