Designed and crafted by Mexican foundation Ensamble Artesano in collaboration with Tuux Mexikoo.

This item is woven with the ancestral backstrap loom technique by the Mendoza family, creating a modern design full of history for this piece. With the backstrap loom, which consists of intertwining threads with the help of a frame attached to the waist of the artisan, one by one they are woven to create a canvas through which they express their history.

The combination of figures that come together in this bag represents the main Zapotec settlements, Monte Alban and Mitla and the Jalieza hills that frame the landscape between both destinations.

Tuux Mexikoo is a social enterprise that honors the cultural legacy of artisanal expressions for social welfare. It accompanies the processes of strengthening and development of artisans to break the inequality gaps through four social pillars: fair trade, recognition, empowerment, preservation of techniques.
