Chumil Basket – Green
(Item # pn-chug)
$72.00
There’s a quiet radiance to this basket—like holding a piece of the sky shaped by hand. Named Chumil, the Kaqchikel word for “star,” this woven design draws your eye inward with its natural spiral, ending in a central star rendered in deep greens and indigo blues. It’s both grounding and luminous—a visual anchor rooted in tradition.
Made in the Guatemalan highlands, the Chumil Basket blends longleaf pine needles, native pajón grass, and hand-dyed raffia into a form that’s as strong as it is beautiful. Whether used on the table or displayed on the wall, this piece bridges everyday function with timeless craftsmanship.

| Meet One Of Our Artisans |
Mayan Hands partners with women-led artisan groups in the Guatemalan highlands, where weaving and basketry are more than craft—they're cultural inheritance. Many of the women learned to weave from their mothers and grandmothers, continuing a tradition that spans generations. By working with Mayan Hands, these artisans earn fair income, gain access to education, and strengthen their communities—all while preserving Maya heritage through their work. "We weave our stories into every piece. It’s how we honor the women who taught us, and how we teach our daughters in return." — Artisan in Sololá |
