Pixan Collection
House of Design Pixan is a fair trade textile workshop in the western Highlands of Guatemala. This association of indigenous artisan weavers is expert in the ancient techniques of back-strap and pedal loom weaving and embroidery. It is a unique, innovative and appropriate social business model that gives indigenous women access to opportunities in a globalized world. Through this model they do not migrate from their communities, preventing discrimination and harassment. Pixan is an initiative of AMA and a program funded by the Inter-American Foundation and the Highland Support Project.
