"Beautiful leather and weave combo. Interesting!"

Id had this on my wishlist for many months, and purchased it this year. Was not disappointed! It is gorgeous!. Cant wait to wear it to visit my doctor from Guatemala next week.

Preserving Traditions

"As a designer, my main work is to make the world aware of the richness of Maya culture. Guatemala is the cradle of this unique civilization. When you choose my handbags, you are acquiring a piece of history because the Maya weaver combines creativity and tradition in every textile. This is why these handbags are unique. You are also fostering the continued use of the backstrap loom so that this art will be taught to future generations and not be lost."
