Mayan Hands artisan partners in Sololá, Guatemala designed this as part of a desig n workshop on color combinations. Pine needles, native grass, raffia 6.5" diameter x 1.25" high Mayan Hands is a fair trade nonprofit organization dedicated to providing economic and educational opportunities to Mayan women and girls so that they can build sustainable futures for themselves, their families and communities, as they continue to live within the culture they cherish. Working with fair trade for all these years has brought a sea change in the lives of the women we work with: they speak out, resist domestic oppression, and, counting on a regular income, have more agency in their lives. We are all especially excited about Mayan Hands Education Fund, which provides scholarships to the daughters of our artisan partners and school supplies to all children. Show more
