Handwoven in San Andrés Larráinzar, Chiapas
Traditional Backstrap Loom • One of a Kind
Handwoven by women artisans in San Andrés Larráinzar, Chiapas, this beautiful bag is created using the traditional backstrap loom (telar de cintura)—an ancestral weaving technique passed down from mother to daughter for generations.
Every intricate geometric pattern is woven directly on the loom, thread by thread, requiring exceptional skill, patience, and time. The vibrant colors and detailed motifs reflect the rich textile traditions of the Maya communities of Chiapas, making each bag a true work of art.
No two bags are exactly alike. Every piece is individually handcrafted, giving it its own unique character while preserving a tradition that has been practiced for centuries.
