Bring global texture and timeless beauty into your home with our Corte Throw Pillow Covers—handmade, sustainable décor crafted from authentic Mayan textiles. Each pillow cover begins with a vintage Mayan corte, the traditional handwoven skirt worn by Indigenous women in Guatemala. Cortes are known for their soft drape, intricate stripes, special randa, an embroidered seam. The corte fabric is made even more beautiful by years of gentle wear and stone-washing that create a naturally lived-in look. The corte is transformed into pillow covers by the talented artisans of Ruth & Naomi, a sewing and crafts cooperative in Chichicastenango, Guatemala.
Whether you’re looking for designer throw pillows, globally inspired home décor, or unique decorative pillows for your couch or bed, these one-of-a-kind covers bring story, soul, and ethical impact into any space. Their neutral, earthy tones pair effortlessly with modern, boho, eclectic, or minimalist interiors.
