ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This handwoven ikat pillow cover brings the ancient art of Indonesian textile making into your modern home. The front features traditional ikat patterns woven in lustrous silk and textured cotton, while the back is crafted from soft cream-colored cotton for everyday comfort.
Each piece is handmade by skilled artisans in Java using time-honored weaving techniques passed down through generations. The intricate ikat patterns are created by resist-dyeing the threads before weaving, resulting in the characteristic softly blurred edges that make each cover unique.
At 22 inches square, this pillow cover transforms any space with its rich textures and meaningful craftsmanship. The natural variations in the handwoven fabric tell the story of human hands at work, bringing authentic Indonesian artistry into your conscious living space.

In the heart of Manhattan Beach, a woman-owned cooperative bridges two worlds through the ancient art of batik. Founded with deep roots in Indonesian heritage, this small business honors the meaning behind its name - Kasih, meaning love and care in Indonesian, paired with Co-op to reflect the collaborative spirit of creation.
Every year, the founder journeys to Indonesia to work directly with skilled artisans, developing new designs while ensuring traditional techniques flourish. The maker partners with eighteen artisan groups across Indonesian regions, with more than half led by women who carry forward centuries of textile wisdom.
As a Fair Trade Federation verified member, the cooperative ensures every hand that touches their creations receives fair compensation. A portion of profits flows back to support education for Indonesian girls, weaving social impact into every thread. Their work stands on three pillars - supporting women artisans, preserving traditional crafts, and sharing Indonesian culture with conscious consumers worldwide.
