This pillow is NOT Burlap. I emailed Wayfair and asked specifically whether the pillows were actually burlap fabric with a fabric applique or just printed fabric made to look that way. The reply I received stated, "the throw pillow is burlap fabric." That is totally untrue. It is a synthetic type of fabric printed to look like burlap. Now I have to pay to have the unwanted pillow returned. I doubt I'll order from Wayfair again, considering the fact that I cannot get an honest answer from their own reps who are supposed to field questions about their products.
