This oversized pillow was inspired by the southwestern travels of my great grandfather in 1906.

The Southwest is a storied land to its native dwellers. Mountain profile, sweep of plain, carved-out mesa, deep canyon, caves, lava streams, level lake beds, painted desert, river shore, spring and forest, are his in intimacy. - Dr. Walter Hough (1859-1935)
