Neza Handmade Oaxacan Wool Pillow Cover — Black & White Arrows

A handmade 12×20" lumbar pillow cover from the community of Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca, Mexico.

Four decorative pompoms at each corner. Each piece takes up to two days to complete by hand.

Front is 100% wool; back is Mexican cotton with zipper closure. Use a 12×18" insert for a looser pillow or a 12×20" insert for a fuller look.

About the Waist Loom Tradition

The waist loom is one of the oldest weaving techniques used by Mesoamerican cultures, still practiced today in communities across Oaxaca and Chiapas. Every piece is a direct product of human skill, time, and tradition — something no machine can replicate.

By purchasing this piece, you are directly supporting the artisan communities of Oaxaca who created and continue to preserve this craft.
