Woven Heart Ornament (Large) - Chiapas, Mexico
Approx. 21 cm (H) × 24 cm (L)
Handwoven in Chichelalho, San Andrés Larráinzar by Ernestina, this large heart ornament is made by a weaver whose work is rooted in the telar de cintura tradition of Chiapas.
Taking around four days to complete, each heart features carefully woven patterns and hand-finished tassels that reflect the time, skill and attention involved in its making. In Chiapas, weaving is carried out primarily by women, who use their knowledge and craft to support their households and work as independent makers and entrepreneurs.
Designed to be styled around the house or hung in the home, it works beautifully on a sofa, bed, wall or door handle.
More than a decorative object, each heart by Ernestina reflects the role of women in sustaining Chiapas textile traditions and supporting themselves through skilled, independent work.
Please note: as each piece is handmade, measurements may vary slightly.
