The story behind the product

Discover our small handwoven bags featuring linear patterns from the traditional traje of Todos Santos Cuchumatán, Guatemala. Crafted by indigenous women artisans using repurposed textiles, these compact bags are ideal for coins, makeup, or everyday essentials. Each piece carries cultural heritage and sustainable slow fashion values.

Showcasing the beauty and power of Guatemalan flora, this upcycled Huipil shoulder bag is a one-of-a-kind artisan piece, handmade from reclaimed traditional Mayan textiles. Featuring vibrant shades of purple, blue, turquoise, and red, each bag is crafted from previously worn and well-loved huipiles, making it a truly unique and eco-conscious fashion statement.
