Authentic African Mudcloth Pillow Covers

Mudcloth is one of the oldest living textile traditions in the world — hand-woven, hand-painted, and ethically sourced from artisan weavers in Mali. Our African mudcloth pillow covers bring that tradition into your home with genuine provenance you won't find in mass-produced alternatives. Every piece is unique. Every purchase supports the network of artisans who keep this craft alive. Available in multiple sizes with custom sizing on request.

Mudcloth's graphic black-and-cream patterns layer beautifully with solid linens and velvets. Build a collected sofa by pairing mudcloth with other throw pillow covers and a coordinated pillow set, then finish each cover with a down-alternative insert. Hang an African juju hat above the sofa to complete the look, or explore the full art collection.
