Know before you buy
Because the front is crafted from 100% sheep's wool, we recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the integrity of the natural fibers and dyes.
The pillow arrives ready to use, complete with a plush, cruelty-free down alternative insert.
At 12"H x 48"W, this is an extra-long lumbar pillow. It is designed to make a significant visual impact and will span the majority of a standard-sized sofa or a queen-sized bed.
The front is made of 100% sheep's wool, which offers a textured, authentic feel characteristic of handwoven textiles. It is durable and structured rather than soft like velvet or cotton.
The pillow features a discreet zipper closure on the back, allowing you to easily remove the cover if needed.
The pillow uses natural dyes, which can result in slight variations in tone. This is a hallmark of the traditional hand-dyeing process used by the artisans in Oaxaca.
