The Xela Jaspe Throw Pillow is a bright and joyful pattern that will add color and texture to any room in your home. Available in several colors and as a lumbar or throw pillow, they add a sweet pop of color on their own or make a dynamic display by mix and matching. They come with a faux down insert, making them vegan and ready to style. Please note, this item is hand-dyed and handwoven, and will have imperfections that make it all the more unique and beautiful.

These pillows are woven by artisans using a back-strap loom, a time honored method of weaving. Weaving with a backstrap loom is a time intensive and highly skilled craft that involves the weaver becoming part of the loom. Artisans wrap threads around a stationary object, then create tension by wrapping a strap around their waist and leaning back.

The pattern is achieved by using a traditional hand dyeing technique called Jaspè (also called Ikat). This is a resist dyeing technique that is applied to thread before weaving, then creates intricate patterns in the final product.
