The oversized lumbar is the finishing (and only!) touch you need for your bed or couch setting. The vibrant palette adds both character and colour, a true reflection of its rich history.
Created by a cooperative of powerful women, these products are designed to reflect their Zapotec roots. Each lumbar takes three full days to weave after a lengthy process of collecting, carding and hand dying locally sourced wool using native plant extracts. All of this in a fair-trade environment.
The beauty of both handmade and natural materials means no two pieces will ever be identical. There may be small differences in pattern, colour, shape or texture to what you see in the photo.
