Fair Trade, Guatemalan Wristband or Friendship Bracelet.
 
These cotton wristbands are woven by hand by women and children around Lake Atitlan whilst herding their animals. This has become a secondary income source for the people of the area. Length: 250mm (10") x  12mm (½") wide. Vast range of colours and colour combinations.

This knot-craft, hand weaving traditionally stems from Central American Handicrafts where according to indigenous tradition, the recipient of a friendship bracelet must wear it until the cords wear out and it falls off naturally. Another variation of this tradition is that the recipient of a bracelet is entitled to a wish, only after the bracelet wears out and falls off naturally, will the wish come true.
 

The price shown is for EACH. The picture above shows several of these handmade items and is only intended to give an idea of the different colours and/or styles available.
