According to Guatemalan tradition, worry dolls help during difficult times when you confide in them and place them under your pillow. Using cotton, nylon and tule fibers, the artisans from the Lopez Garcia Family breathe life into a colorful keychain featuring a worry doll adorned in typical Guatemalan attire and cradling a petite ceramic turtle. Gracefully hanging from a secure stainless steel ring, this vibrant accessory will bring a touch of folklore to your everyday life.
You can find our cotton keychain 'Road Companion' by Lopez Garcia Family in accessories categories such as Hand Woven Keychains and Straps and Metal Keychains and Straps. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
