The handbag's beige tone blends crude cotton with a natural green color first harvested by the Maya.'My story is really the story of my whole family, beginning with my parents,' says Guatemala's Luisa Villavicencio. 'My father was passionate about growing cotton, a crop that originated with the Maya. We work with only three pure colors. Apart from the crude cotton color, we use a seed known asthat produces brown cotton. We call our third color jade. All the rest of our colors are a result of combining fibers and threads from these three when weaving the fabric.'Please allow 10 business days for the product to leave our warehouse and to receive tracking information.
