Details

Guatemalan artisan Miguel Hernández proudly preserves two traditions - from his family and from his hometown - with the design of this cotton scarf. First, his weaving techniques on the traditional pedal loom honour the artistic legacy of Totonicapán, Guatemala. Second, he integrates the diamond patterns that have distinguished his family's designs through generations. "This time I was guided by the combination of colours when I designed this red and white scarf with black accents," confides Hernández.

He was taught by his parents and preserves the tradition by teaching those in his community.

Caring for Children

Miguel is a proud father of three children.
