Zig Zag Throw Pillow
Handwoven in the Nahuala community using the traditional backstrap loom, this vibrant pillow features a dynamic zig zag motif—an enduring symbol in Maya textile tradition. The zig zag represents movement, energy, and the rhythms of nature, from the flow of rivers to the cycles of life. It’s a pattern that speaks to resilience and continuity, passed down through generations of weavers as both art and storytelling.
Each pillow is crafted by skilled artisans who create the intricate zig zag design by hand, lifting each thread with care to build the bold, geometric pattern row by row. The bright, contrasting colors are just as meaningful—chosen not only for their beauty, but for their role in cultural identity and celebration. In Maya weaving, color carries emotion, history, and purpose.
This design brings together all of the colors from our broader collection into one joyful composition—a piece that ties it all together, both literally and symbolically. Equal parts playful and meaningful, the Zig Zag Pillow adds movement, spirit, and a rich cultural story to any space.
