Full Description

Just outside of Marrakech, a remarkable group of women transform the natural fibres of desert agave into beautiful silken thread using time-honoured methods. The hand-spun thread is then masterfully woven on family looms and embroidered with traditional motifs. Through their weaving, these women are redefining traditional gender roles and finding financial independence.

Please note that size, colour and design will vary slightly between each item (as shown in the last photo).

Pillow cover measures 18×18” with zipper closure. Dry clean only. Pillow comes stuffed with a non-allergenic polyester fibre fill insert. Ethically crafted in Morocco.

Problem

Founder Ellen Dorsch visited rehab centres in Ethiopia where women were sewing and embroidering table cloths. There market was a small bazaar and ex-pats living in Addis Ababa as their customers. The opportunity to improve the lives of these women and maintaining a centuries-old art became apparent.
