Description
 
This is the perfect bag to wear both with Jeans and on more formal occasions. These bags were woven by refugees of the Guatemalan civil war who originally came from the town of San Ildefonso Ixtahuacan and have now been resettled in a different area. This product expresses their desire to continue identifying with their original town. It has an adjustable strap and a zipper top. Because of the handmade nature of these products sizes vary slightly. It is approximately 12 inches wide by 14 inches high. This is made by the weavers of Mayan Hands cooperative.

Here is what a recent customer said:
The shoulder bag is wonderful. I have been using it for about a week now and have received many compliments from adults and non-verbal ones from children: I work with infants and toddlers and many of them have been very attracted to the beautiful and colourful embroidery. They come over and love to touch the stitching. The bag is very well made with a separate and strong inner lining.The embroidery is not only beautiful, but so expertly done - the back and knots are not visible at all. The bag has ample room for carrying everything I need (which does include a notebook!) Other than how beautiful it is, I am loving how comfortable the wide shoulder strap is - no matter how much I weigh it down, it never cuts into my shoulder. Being adjustable is another very big plus. I can see this as a very popular gift item.-- Katarina
