Know before you buy
The 20-inch down insert is intentionally larger than the 18-inch cover to ensure the pillow looks full, plush, and holds its shape well. This 'overstuffing' technique is a standard design choice to prevent the corners from looking flat or empty.
The cover is machine washable. We recommend washing it in cold water and hanging it to dry to preserve the integrity of the hand-woven cotton fibers.
While the pillow features a discreet invisible zipper, the cover is not intended to be removed for separate cleaning. The entire piece should be cared for according to the machine wash instructions provided.
Because each pillow is hand-woven by artisans, you can expect a unique, high-quality texture that feels more substantial and authentic than mass-produced textiles. The 100% Ethiopian cotton provides a soft yet durable hand-feel that adds character to your space.
The down insert provides a soft, luxurious, and malleable feel. Because it is generously sized for the cover, it offers a supportive structure that you can easily karate-chop for a styled, designer look.
