Beautiful, subtle colors in an intricately woven textile, the Quetzal clutch is named for the bird featured on it - the national bird of Guatemala the quetzal. The light blush pink is perfectly complemented by an earthy café au lait color, ivory and deep indigo. Based on ancient Mayan spinning and dyeing techniques, Guatemalan textiles are an enduring link to a rich cultural past. Weavers today (mostly women) still derive colors for their threads from vegetables and minerals and continue to use the original Mayan loom, also known as a backstrap loom, that consists of rods, rope, and a strap that is worn around the weaver's waist! With skill and creativity, these Mayan weavers preserve their traditional craft techniques while creating an income for their families.
