Was introduced to these beautiful textiles and fun company, at Fredericksburg /Wimberly markets, and have been ordering huipils, blouses, purses and lovely cushions ever since . They are well made and I appreciate the vintage charm. ❤️
Beautiful textile made from natural cotton. A true artist made this Huipil, and I’m proud to wear it. I gotten compliments when I wore it for the first time. Even my husband said it was unique and looked good.
Tesoro Maya has a fabulous selection of vintage and modern/new huipiles. I have bought 4 from them. They are an antidote to modern corporate clothing and a pervasive sense of emptiness: the tops are handmade on looms and involve hours and weeks if not months of intense embroidery. Sometimes the embroidery tells a story or represents some of the important aspects of indigenous communities (animals, flowers, cosmology, etc.) When you wear them you cannot help but feel a deep presence of ancestors, sister-friends and love for the natural world. Angelica runs a business that nourishes artisans and spreads Guate-love and vibrancy through every article sold in her shop, but the huipil is extra special bc of all the hand work, intention, history and artistry involved. I live
in the ones I have purchased all summer long!
I’m obsessed with Tesoros Maya bags, wallets, pillows, etc. you name it, they got it! I have bought 2 bags, 2 wallets (one was a Christmas gift for a friend), a pillow, & scrunchies.
I love the personalization they give to each customer when you order. Best huipils I’ve seen & they aren’t extremely expensive. The price points are great and the customer service is even better.
When I first bought my first bag and wallet Angelica brought some of my items to a pop up in Texas that we just moved close to so I made the trip and had the pleasure of meeting her in person. I have since come to adore her and her company as a whole. I also love seeing her and her family in Guatemala and the lives she has on insta & FB. I looooove supporting Tesoros Maya.
I’ve bought multiple items from this store and they never disappoint! Pictures don’t do them justice. They are beautiful pieces of art and made to last.
I messaged Angelica while I was in Texas visiting after finding her Etsy shop. She had the most beautiful bags and I had been wanting one for years. She agreed to meet me at a pop up she was attending and bring bags she usually doesn’t bring. She is a lovely person and her bags are amazing in both beauty and quality. All her items give you a feel good feeling too since she directly is involved with the creating of the bags and personally knows the families that are impacted by her business. I had such a hard time picking my bag which only means I will be buying another one soon. Thank you!!
