There is a quiet sweetness to this piece - small in scale, yet full of presence. The Margarita Basket feels like something gathered rather than made, its delicate form echoing the simplicity of a flower resting open to the light.

Handwoven in the Guatemalan Highlands, each basket carries the texture of the land within it. The natural tones of pajón grass and pine needles create a soft, organic palette, while the gentle curvature of the form lends it a sense of ease. Whether holding small essentials or resting on its own, it brings a subtle warmth to the table - something both useful and quietly beautiful.


Key Features:
  • Handwoven by Mayan Hands Artisans: Crafted by the women of the El Triunfo cooperative, each basket reflects traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. Their work supports sustainable income and community development.
  • Natural + Sustainable Materials: Made from pajón, a native Guatemalan grass, and sustainably harvested longleaf pine needles. These materials offer both durability and a naturally textured finish.
  • Delicate, Floral-Inspired Form: The softly rounded shape evokes a simple bloom - light, open, and understated. A design that feels both intentional and organic.
  • Functional + Decorative Use: Perfect for holding small items - jewelry, keys, or tabletop essentials - while also serving as a subtle decorative accent.
  • One-of-a-Kind Craftsmanship: Each basket will vary slightly in tone and weave, reflecting its handmade nature and the individuality of its maker.

There is something meaningful in the smallest objects - the ones that hold just enough, that ask little, and offer quiet beauty in return. This basket lives in that space, where simplicity becomes something worth keeping.

Mayan Hands is a fair trade nonprofit working alongside Maya women and girls in the Guatemalan Highlands. Through long-term partnerships, education, and access to wider markets, the organization supports artisans as artists, businesswomen, and leaders within their communities. The pine needle baskets and trivets we carry are coiled by hand from local grasses and pine, their subtle variations preserving the presence of the woman who made them. Each one brings beauty into the home while helping create greater possibility beyond it.
