Our authentic Bogolan mudcloth cushions are handmade using traditional techniques in Mali. Narrow strips of handwoven cotton are stitched together into a whole cloth, then painted with geometric patterns and symbols using a variety of natural dyes, including river mud that has been aged for up to one year. Each cloth is a unique creation and it is perfectly imperfect. Our cushions have a linen backing and each is filled with a plump feather insert.
Available in Black, White, Mustard and Rust
