Guajira Pillow Cover
Guajira Pillow Cover
Introducing our Guajira weave, small blocks of contrasting yellow and blue play tribute to the captivating contrasts found in the Guajira region where its bright yellow sands meet the deep blue of the sea. Stretched between parts of Venezuela and northern Colombia, La Guajira is a desert land home to the indigenous Wayuu people, renowned for their vibrant handwoven "mochilas" (handbags). Breathtaking sand dunes, crystal-clear Caribbean waters, cactus varieties, and flamingo sanctuaries make this place unlike any other landscape in Colombia.
Complete your space with the comfort of organic cotton. Each pillow boasts a unique textured knit design, functioning as a cozy home accent and a colorful work of art.

The Buchua Collection Inspiration
Buchua is an ode to the indigenous Muisca language, with the word itself meaning “dry,” which perfectly encapsulates the diverse arid landscapes of Colombia from deserts to dry tropical forests. The Buchua Collection is an expression of our marvel at these resilient biomes. We explore the intricate relationships between flora, fauna, soils, and the communities that rely on these lands.
Featuring our classic natural dye colors alongside new pigments crafted by the artisans, our soft textiles reflect the vibrant and earthy hues of the dry Colombian terrains. We introduce new collaborations with communities renowned for their artistry in wool weaving and hand painting on robust earthenware. In this collection, the craftsmanship in the woven fabrics and hand-painted earthenware is a tribute to the ecosystems thriving in these regions. Join us in celebrating the resilience, diversity, and natural wonders of Colombia’s dry lands.
