Handmade Women’s Cape With a Purpose
The Capes in the photographs took 4 weeks to make; our capes are not mass-produced.
The Back Strap Loom, a technique utilized for hundreds of years by Mayan artisans, is used to create textiles.
The Cape is resistant to shrinkage and fading and machine washable.
Hand stitching was used to decorate this cape.
This Cape can be ordered in any color combination and with any type of embroidery.
Since accepting donations would not be sustainable, Ethical Fashion Guatemala does not.
