Cotton Scarf in Many Colors

Classy Every Day

We are simply amazed here at Eco Life Goods by this exquisite handmade cotton scarf made of breathable cotton and available in an array of colors. Pick up a few to complete your outfits and spruce them up with a touch of exotic style.

This colorful collection of cotton scarves has been hand-woven in Guatemala on traditional backstrap looms with a complex and increasingly rare technique that's been passed down through generations of Mayan culture.

These scarves are made by women artisans from the UPAVIM cooperative on the outskirts of Guatemala City. UPAVIM, which stands for United for a Better Life, is an 80 member artisan enterprise helping women through social and economic empowerment. In addition to training women in creating various handmade textiles, UPAVIM has established a school, a pharmacy and a bakery within their cooperative.
