Handcrafted Rope Hammock (Single), "Caribbean Dream"
Woven by hand, this colorful hammock boasts the serene hues of the Mexican Caribbean. Maya Artists of the Yucatán create it in the same way they have for centuries, finishing the ends with strong loops for hanging.
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-honored 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 color from those shown in the images.
It easily packs for travel to the beach or lake. Extender ropes (measuring 1 meter), hammock hooks ("S" hooks), and step-by-step instructions included for easy installation.
NOTE: Because each is woven individually by hand, measurements may vary by as much as ten centimeters. There may be slight color variations from hammock to hammock.

"Love my hammock"
I love my hammock! It s beautifully made, very sturdy, and incredibly comfortable. It comes with ropes to hang the hammock, but I prefer hammock straps so I use those instead. The loops where you hook the hammock to a rope/strap/etc. are very strong and sturdy. 15/10 would recommend these hammocks :)
