This hammock holds the promise of a well-deserved rest with its palette of cool and refreshing hues. From Maya Artists of the Yucatan, this ample cotton hammock is woven by hand according to age-old techniques.
Long before the Spanish arrived upon the coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula, the Maya preferred to sleep and rest in hammocks. They considered the hammock to be like the loving embrace of a mother, due to the comfortable manner in which the body is held and swung within its cradle. Maya Artists of the Yucatan seek to preserve time-honoured customs while also offering stylized versions of the original Maya hammock. For them, the hammock is a work of art. Their hammocks are incredibly comfortable, easy to maintain, and may be stored just about anywhere.
Please note: The accompanying extension ropes may vary in colour from those shown in the images.
Please note: For best results, store indoors when not in use. colours may bleed when wet.
NOTE: Because each is woven individually by hand, measurements may vary by as much as ten centimeters. There may be slight colour variations from hammock to hammock.

The quality of this hammock is clear and I envision this lasting indoors and out for many years. I have mine indoors until the summer hits and its my new favorite spot, beating out my fancy Stressless chair! Its even comfortable with a bad lower back.
