Pixan is the community brand of the Association of Women of the Highlands (Asociación de Mujeres del Altiplano AMA), which empowers indigenous Mayan women through women’s circles focusing on health, education, civic engagement and entrepreneurship. The word Pixan means “spirit” in the Mayan K’iche language, reflecting the brand’s deep roots in indigenous weaving traditions. Their artisans use techniques like back-strap loom and pedal loom weaving to produce home decor, accessories, and textiles that blend ancestral patterns and designs with modern aesthetics.
