The Atitlan is just the thing to bring on a stylish weekend away. Crafted by indigenous females in the highlands of Guatemala using backstrap weaving (a traditional Mayan technique that's been practiced for over 2,000 years). It takes at least two full days for artisans to make one ‘lienzo’ or backstrap woven textile.
