Cojolya Association of Maya Women Weavers was founded in 1983 in order to preserve the art of the back-strap loom and provide a sustainable, viable source of income to Maya Tz'utujil women of low resources. We're a registered non-profit and a member of the World Fair Trade Organization.
Each product is handwoven on the back-strap loom by a member artisan of the association. 50% of every purchase goes back directly to the artisans, and additional 25% is set aside for social programming including scholarships, environmental initiatives, and educational workshops
The Magenta Collection, created with love and dedication by our talented Mayan weavers, pays homage to the vibrant and powerful Pantone 2023 color of the year, Viva Magenta. This electrifying hue, from the red family, reflects the strength of nature and becomes the soul of our new creations.
The bags in the Magenta Collection are much more than accessories; they are statements of principle that encourage experimentation and unrestricted self-expression; each piece is a unique canvas, woven with ingenuity and full of vitality.
The umbrella hat is durable and suitable for many occasions. This innovative accessory presents two styles in one: a white brocade pattern representing the shape of the canoe seen from above and on the other side a sophisticated navy blue color with brocade details completely in the color that evokes Lake Atitlan, navy blue.
Whether for a casual evening, an elegant gathering or a day of exploring under the sun, this reversible hat gives you the perfect option to complement your style in a unique and distinctive way. Make a fashion statement with this accessory that not only highlights your personality, but also celebrates the craftsmanship of talented women.
One-size fits all.

This chic throw brings a luxurious texture to a brocade that draws from Maya heritage as a similar weave is seen on women's traditional blouses across Santiago Atitlán. Due to its size and time-consuming work on a wide loom, this product is only available for shipment directly from Guatemala.

Cojolya values transparency and honoring our artisans. That's why each product comes with a tag with the name of the weaver who wove your bag. We offer a (not so) revolutionary way to do trade: Fairly.
Cojolya promises to celebrate each member artisan of the association. With the individual tag, we hold ourselves accountable to the artisan and to our customer.
