Get ready to shell-ebrate with the Woven Turtle! This quirky and playful little guy is hand-woven by skilled artisans in Honduras, making each one truly unique. With its fun and whimsical design, this turtle will add a touch of charm to any space. Perfect for the fun-loving animal lover! Each turtle is meticulously woven by hand by The Women of San Juan. These artisans are part of an indigenous group in Honduras called the Tolupanes and come from the San Juan tribe. They live in a remote area called Montana De La Flor. Weaving is a handicraft that has been passed down through many generations. The suyate leaves used to make the baskets grows in the higher altitudes of Montana De La Flor and the women walk for several hours to pick it. It then has to be laid out to dry before being used to create the turtles.
