About this Item
Guatemala's Lopez Garcia Family creates this delightful embellished table runner that is sure to be a conversation starter. The ivory cotton runner is embellished at both ends with quitapenas, or Guatemalan "worry dolls". According to legend, the princess Ixmucané was granted the ability to solve people's problems by the Sun God. Over time, people began to make tiny dolls in remembrance of Ixmucané. They would tell the dolls their problems in the hopes that Ixmucané would solve them. The custom became very popular, and continues to this day. The charming table runner is completed by ivory tassels at both ends.

“LOVE these dolls”
I bought these during a time of many life changes, both stressful and joyful. The dolls help me express my concerns out loud, without judgment or unwanted advice. Thank you, Garcia Family, for the care you put into these dolls. Your dedication makes a difference.
