Handcrafted from 100% cotton, the Pantelho Pillow looks great as a throw pillow for the sofa or bed, and is soft enough for napping. The mix of subtle and bold stripes highlight the handwoven texture made on backstrap looms in Pantelho, Mexico, using the same technique as our Pantelho Throws and floor pillows (perfect for coordinating). Made with an envelope enclosure that makes washing and care a breeze.

Made by Backstrap Weavers in Pantelhó, Mexico

The drive to Pantelhó from San Cristóbal, the capital of Chiapas, takes about two hours through winding, mountainous dirt roads. Here we work with two women-run cooperatives made up of over 30 women. One is led by a mother-daughter duo, and the other by a group of sisters.

About these artisans

They weave using traditional backstrap looms that are worn around their hips, which allows for each panel to only be as wide as the weaver’s hips wearing it. After each panel is woven, they hand stitch them together to create our Pantelho throws, baby blankets, and floor pillows.
