Corte Pillow
Description
In its past life, this Intertwined handmade throw pillow was a corte - a traditional handwoven Guatemalan Mayan skirt. Now, stone-washed and well-worn, it boasts a softness that's unmatched. The reverse side is made of 100% white denim cotton, lovingly sewn by Afghan refugees living in North Carolina. Use it to add a touch of vibrant color to your bed or sofa.

What Make Intertwined Products Special?
Intertwined is not simply a shop filled with handmade goods we found along the way (although we do have some of those, too). We design or co-design most of our products in close partnership with skilled artisan makers, combining traditional craft techniques with pieces that feel beautiful, useful, and at home in modern life.
Our artisan partners bring generations of knowledge—handweaving, glassblowing, leatherwork, embroidery, sewing, pottery, and more. We bring design ideas, product direction, and a deep respect for the materials, processes, and people behind each piece.
The result is a collection that feels distinctly Intertwined: handmade, story-rich, thoughtfully designed, and created through relationships—not mass production.
Care Instructions
We recommend dry cleaning your Wool Momo Blanket to preserve its size, texture, and heirloom quality.
These blankets are traditionally finished by soaking in natural volcanic hot springs, which helps bind the wool fibers and gives them their thick, dense, comforting feel. Because wool can continue to felt or shrink with heat, agitation, or sudden temperature changes, we do not recommend machine washing.
For everyday care, shake out gently, spot clean small areas with cool water and mild soap when needed, and air out occasionally. For deeper cleaning, take it to a trusted dry cleaner familiar with wool textiles.
