This one of a kind purse was handwoven by the Kakchiquel mayan women of the Sololá Weavers group. This sturdy purse is machine washable and contains 6 pockets and comes with a free matching coin purse! A portion of all proceeds help to provide a much needed economic boost to a group of women in one of the most depressed regions of Guatemala.
All
workers producing our Fair Trade purses are paid a fair and reasonable wage for their
products.
This purse was handwoven by the wonderful women of Maya Traditions. Maya Traditions works with more than 100 Maya women in five established groups in rural villages. Predominantly working with women who do backstrap weaving, an ancient traditional art that women can do at home while caring for their families, Maya Traditions brings much needed income to poor regions of Guatemala. In addition, they work with a group of women crochet artisans, footloom weavers, and small family businesses.
