Each one-of-a-kind blanket is handcrafted from start to finish, utilizing rustic tools and traditional processes handed down in the villages over generations since the 1700s. The natural wool is woven on a traditional wooden standing loom by elders in the highlands of Guatemala.

The blanket is cream with an earthy, rust colored arrow and stripe pattern.
