Fair Trade jewelry created by indigenous Mayan women of Lake Atitlan, in the Guatemalan Highlands. Drawing upon the master weaving techniques that have been a part of their culture for generations, they skillfully hand-craft these beautiful pieces, combining contemporary designs with ancient traditions. The more than 50 women currently participating in this Fair Trade program are paid a fair, sustainable living wage for their work. The sale of this jewelry allows these women to be independent, support their families and sustain their culture. www.GypsyRiverRiches.com
