Woven by hand on a backstrap loom, this cotton bracelet exemplifies the traditional textiles of Guatemala. Karina Mercedes Canova designs the piece with white leather and pinewood beads to wrap around the wrist. 'I used white to represent peace and harmony in combination with the colors and elements in this design,' she explains.

The weavings are created entirely by hand. The motifs can vary slightly, according to the artisan's inspiration, making each bracelet unique.
