Pájaro Lumbar Pillow

$450.00

Nestled between three majestic volcanoes along the shores of Lake Atitlán, Santiago Atitlán is a place of rich tradition and breathtaking artistry. This piece is our tribute to the extraordinary textiles crafted and worn with pride in this vibrant community. The foundation of the traditional huipil from Santiago Atitlán is often a simple plaid, serving as a backdrop for intricate, hand-embroidered designs that adorn the entire garment.

Here, we highlight a precious pair of birds, a motif carefully brought to life by master embroidery artisans. With over 700 species of birds found in Guatemala, these embroidered designs reflect the country’s deep connection to nature, where birds symbolize freedom, beauty, and spiritual significance. A celebration of heritage and craftsmanship, this piece captures the spirit of a weaving tradition as vibrant and enduring as the landscape itself.
