This luxurious hand-loomed poncho is knitted from a blend of Guatemalan cotton woven with structured reclaimed denim fibers. The materials are 100% natural and completely free of any dyes.Luisa Villavicencio's workshop creates apparel and accessories that celebrate the rich textile tradition of her family. The cotton woven into their designs is grown in a plantation started by Luisa's father and her knowledge of traditional textiles comes through her mother who was trained in Maya weaving. In an effort to contribute to a greener environment, the workshop has a long-standing partnership with a firm that recycles denim scraps discarded by Guatemala's clothing industry and uses them to create pieces such as this one.
