Maia Pillow Cover

What You Need to Know about Our Authentic African Mud Cloth

We sew all our Mud Cloth pillow covers here in Ontario, Canada.  What makes our pillows that much different from others you will find out there is that our covers have been lined (very unusual) to enhance their appearance, for stability and to reduce stress on the fabric. Our Mud Cloth has been gently washed several times before the pillow covers are constructed.

Indigo Dye:  There is no way to prevent indigo from bleeding onto other clothes or to prevent transfer so please use these pillow covers only against dark fabrics.  As beautiful as they are, they are not suitable for light coloured furniture or linens

All mud cloth pillows are unique one-of-a-kind. Variations in pattern and minor imperfections should be expected. Authentic Mali Mud Cloth or Bògòlanfini is made almost entirely by hand and comprised of 6"- 8" panels. Handwoven and crafted mud cloth is 100% cotton fabric made in West Africa. The finished mud cloth textile may have discolorations, pattern variations, minor paint smudges, or pulls at seams where panels are sewn together. These imperfections are unique to each piece and inherent to the style and age of the textile and only enhance the individual nature of the pillow covers.

We try to photograph our pillow covers to reflect the actual colours however colour values may be displayed differently on some computer monitors.
