Sunshine Rainbow is a vibrant gold-yellow with a rainbow on the edge. The ROYGBIV (red-orange-yellow-green-blue-idigo-violet) rainbow takes up about a fourth of the width of the wrap, with 3/4s filled with sunshine gold. This is a diamond weave with a lemon yellow weft that creates subtle elegance in the yellow part of the wrap and stands out beautifully through the rainbow stripes.
This is a 100% cotton Girasol diamond weave wrap that is thin and floppy straight out of the package, making it a great Summer wrap, and a wonderful wrap for beginners to learn on. These wraps were handwoven in Guatemala by Pedro Alba, Sta. Lucia Utatlan, Canton Pamezabal.
We originally planned to go on a journey in Central America for 6 month, but it grew into a 2 years stay.
There remains among us a lasting affection for the region and a special loveof the Indians of Guatemala.
We started selecting cloth, textiles and handicrafts on the markets of the Guatemalan highlands to sell them in Mexico and later in Germany.
Our shop in Berlin opened 1984.
Through our continous stays in Mexico and Guatemala, we developed friendly relations to the families of the weaver and artisans.
The collaboration with the artisans is based on fair trade with the guarantee of continous orders.
