Know before you buy
Sadza resist painting is a traditional Zimbabwean craft that uses a maize-based paste applied to fabric. Once the paste is baked and dried, it creates a distinct, crackled texture that gives the pillow its unique, artisanal character.
No, this product is a pillow cover only. It is designed to fit a standard 18" x 18" pillow insert.
The envelope closure features an overlapping fabric design on the back, which eliminates the need for zippers or buttons. This provides a clean, seamless look and makes it easy to remove the cover for cleaning.
While the 100% cotton material is natural and breathable, the 'bark weave' and Sadza painting process create a textured, tactile finish. It is designed more for decorative appeal and structural interest than for a smooth, silky feel.
Due to the delicate nature of the hand-applied Sadza resist painting, we recommend spot cleaning or a gentle hand wash in cool water. Lay it flat to air dry to preserve the integrity of the texture and pattern.
