This gorgeous Summer Poncho Green is handmade with soft natural cotton hand-dyed with natural dyes extracted from plants. Mayan weavers created this ecofriendly poncho just for you!
You can wear this fairtrade poncho loose or combined with one of our handcrafted leather belts. Either way, it will make you look wonderful and give you a nice feeling.
These ponchos are skillfully handwoven by Mayan master weavers of the cooperative Ajttonel Ixok in Guatemala. They used 100% natural cotton (self grown cotton) and self-made natural dyes extracted from barks, plants, vegetables, seeds and flowers.
Appreciating the work of these of indigenous women weavers and buying their goods, you help them to support directly their families, their children's education, the strengthening of associations of women weavers and their communities.
