One Of A Kind
Guatemala
One Of A Kind products are made using up-cycled Mayan apparel that was woven with a back strap or a foot loom technique many years ago. We travel to remote Guatemalan villages and select designs from thousands of traditional huipils (shirts) and cortes (skirts) previously worn by native Guatemalan women.

New Life to Vintage
The Guatemala OOAK collection is crafted from vintage Maya clothing, made on backstrap looms and footlooms many years ago.
Perfectly Imperfect
Just like each of us, these bags have imperfections—they are perfectly imperfect. We celebrate these imperfections because they are made by hand!

"You'll never find another one quite like me."
Refuse to be Ordinary
Since the One of a Kind Collection is made from unique upcycled fabric, no two bags are ever exactly the same.

Introducing H&S
"I created Heritage & Society because traditions are so important to me in my own family. It is my intention to encourage young artists to carry on the traditions taught and practiced in their families by making a living with that skill.”

True Craftsmanship
The Heritage & Society panels are newly woven panels made on a backstrap loom. We design each new panel with the intent to preserve the culture and tradition of Maya weaving but to also infuse new colors and pattern combination that compliment the design! Depending on the difficulty, it can take 7-12 days to make each panel.
Embrace Your Heritage
Heritage & Society was created for those that find beauty in the details of artisan work—who have an appreciation for different cultures—and a desire to enable newer generations to embrace the old and the new traditions of their heritage.
Seasonal Releases
Each season we bring you limited edition H&S designs. They are our smallest collections since the work it takes to create each panel is so rigorous and time consuming.
