Ikat Silk saving Scarf

Organic, natural, renewable, sustainable, textiles.

The ikat or jaspe threads are all dyed individually, in the home, and this is one of the more tedious of the jobs. This ikat almost entirely uses cotton threads.

All of their cotton scarves and shawls were made entirely from cotton yarn that is naturally dyed by the artisan using plants, vegetables, fruits, and insects. After the fabrics have been dyed the color is set with banana stems.

Each item is a unique example of beautiful craftsmanship. Your purchase helps sustain artisans in Guatemala, their families, and their communities.
