Introducing the "Margarita Poncho"...in honor of my beautiful mommy Margaret Gayle Jolluck. When she saw photos of the 1st sample we created a little over a month ago, she loved it & said she had to have it. Unfortunately she was never able to wear hers, but every Coleccion Luna poncho will have her colorful spirit woven into it!

Stunning Vintage Maya Textile Poncho with Hand-Crafted Tassels...
created from a gently used Mayan Huipil using Fair Trade Practices
There are no two huipiles exactly alike.
In Guatemala, weaving is an integral part of a Maya woman’s daily life & is an important responsibility that is passed on from generation to generation. Mayans have been weaving for over 2, 000 years. Although the textiles have evolved and there have been changes in types of threads, dyes, and designs over the centuries, the basic back strap loom has changed very little. Many types of fabric are handwoven on these looms, and every woman makes her own unique huipil, the traditional blouse still worn in these regions. The design of the huipil expresses cultural identity, role in society, and personal aesthetic.
*Handwoven, one of a kind, one size fits all
**Elegant black velvet huipil with stunning floral hand beaded neckline
***Measurements: 33" x 35" and a 6" handcrafted tassel
We ship WORLDWIDE with DHL!!!
