Guatemalan Textiles Backpack
Wearable art pieces like this one-f-a-kind Guatemalan Textiles Bag combine art, style and craftsmanship to create a memorable statement piece. A true form of self-expression to both the weaver and wearer. These wearable textile art bags are handcrafted using soft full grain leather and ancient Mayan weaving techniques. Mayan textile symbols are expressed throughout each handcrafted piece. The traditional Guatemalan textiles and Guatemalan fabric make this bag special and memorable. All interior and exterior Mayan textiles have been loomed by hand on the backstrap loom by skilled Mayan weavers in Guatemala. All Guatemalan textiles are unique and inspired by the weaver herself. Each huipil bag comes with adjustable backpack straps and a crossbody strap.
