Cotton Cushion Cover - Cancuc Blue
Sourced
Guarantee
Evoking the skies above the Maya town of Cancuc, this lovely cotton cushion cover reveals starlight motifs. The highlands of Chiapas are well-known for their artisans, particularly its talented weavers. This design is handwoven on the traditional backstrap loom with a subtle brocade to light up any modern home. It comes from the Aid to Artisans organization, which works to help the indigenous people of this state maintain their traditional lifestyles.
The reverse side is the same fabric without the motifs. An opening at the back permits insertion of the cushions.

THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Aid to Artisans
Country: Mexico
"Aid To Artisans Mexico is an initiative that creates opportunities for artisan groups in Chiapas communities as well as in the Yucatan Peninsula. Many of these communities are in remote areas, and their artisan traditions are marginalized or in danger of being lost.
"We combine our passion for Mexico's Maya culture and their artisan traditions with our own commitment to construct successful small businesses.
"We've been able to connect with artisans for their personal growth and development so that their artistic skills can lead them to greater opportunities.""
