All of our products are made in Cajolá, Guatemala by the Mayamam Weaving Cooperative, a group of foot loom weavers, backstrap weavers, and seamstresses located in Cajola, Guatemala. You can find out more about them here.

Our North American based designers are inspired by traditional patterns, motifs and colors woven by Maya women, which we adapt to fit contemporary products. For example, our Celebration table runners are inspired by the traditional basket liners used for tortillas. Often the best products come from a back-and-forth collaboration with the weavers and seamstresses as an initial design idea is prototyped and revised.

Mayamam Weavers is committed to being a fair trade business. As members of the Fair Trade Federation, our business is carefully vetted annually to ensure that we are adhering to the Fair Trade principles across the organization. Being Fair Trade verified means every product is made with respect for people and the planet. Artisans are paid fairly, work in safe conditions and have the opportunity to preserve their cultural traditions while supporting their families.
