{"product_id":"san-antonio-pillow-cover","title":"San Antonio Pillow Cover | 100% Hand-Spun Wool | Handmade in Guatemala","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Pillow With a Story Worth Telling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost pillows are made by machines in factories, identical to ten thousand others that came off the same line. This one is not. The San Antonio Pillow Cover is made by hand, one at a time, by skilled artisans in Guatemala — woven on a traditional pedal loom from 100% hand-spun wool, using techniques passed down through generations of Guatemalan weavers. Because it is made by human hands rather than machines, no two are exactly alike. The slight variations in size and color are not imperfections — they are the signature of the person who made it. They are proof that this pillow was touched, crafted, and cared for by a skilled pair of hands before it ever arrived in your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e100% Hand-Spun Wool — The Ancient Fiber of the Highlands\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWool has been spun by hand since before recorded history — and for good reason. It is one of the most remarkable natural fibers on earth. Hand-spun wool, unlike commercially processed wool, retains the full character of the fiber — its natural lanolin, its slight irregularities, its warmth and texture that machine-spun yarn simply cannot replicate. The result is a fabric that is deeply tactile, beautifully textured, and extraordinarily durable. Wool is naturally temperature-regulating, naturally resistant to dust mites, and naturally resilient — it holds its shape, holds its color, and holds its beauty for years. This is the fiber that clothed the ancient world, that warmed the shepherds of Scripture, that has been woven into the story of human civilization from the beginning. On your sofa or your bed, it brings that same timeless warmth into your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWoven on a Pedal Loom in Guatemala\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pedal loom — introduced to Guatemala by Spanish colonizers in the 16th century — has been mastered and made entirely their own by Guatemalan weavers over the centuries. It is a loom operated entirely by the body: feet working the pedals, hands passing the shuttle, eyes reading the pattern. It requires skill, rhythm, and patience — the kind of patient, skilled labor that produces something a machine never could. Meso Goods works directly with these artisans in Guatemala, ensuring that the craft is honored, the makers are paid fairly, and the tradition continues. When you purchase this pillow cover, you are not just buying a beautiful object — you are participating in a supply chain that creates sustainable income for artisan families and keeps an ancient craft alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Skilled Hands of the Maker\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScripture honors the work of skilled hands. When God called Bezalel to craft the furnishings of the Tabernacle, He filled him with the Spirit of God — “with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of crafts” (Exodus 31:3). The ability to make beautiful things with one’s hands is a gift from God, and the artisans of Guatemala who weave these pillow covers carry that gift. Bringing their work into your home is a way of honoring it — of saying that beauty made by skilled hands belongs in a home that values beauty, craftsmanship, and the dignity of the maker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% hand-spun wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Pedal loom woven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 12\" H x 20\" W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Meso Goods, Guatemala\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach piece is unique — slight variations in size and color are natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy Powered by People\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e— Proverbs 31:13\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DC-Powered by People","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42749293428813,"sku":"DC-2791055","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4042\/2477\/files\/a5f1841d31fc488abb605328ad5bc5b8.jpg?v=1772641303","url":"https:\/\/christiandecorandmore.com\/products\/san-antonio-pillow-cover","provider":"Christian Decor and more","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
