Made from a vintage Guatemalan corte — the traditional skirt fabric worn by many Maya women — this one-of-a-kind cotton blanket brings color, history, and beautiful handwoven texture into everyday life. Each blanket is created from repurposed vintage cotton textile and joined by artisans at Ruth & Naomi with a decorative hand-embroidered seam called a randa.
Ultra-cozy, colorful, and full of joyful craftsmanship, this blanket is perfect as a sofa throw, bed accent, picnic blanket, beach blanket, or relaxed artisan tablecloth. It is the kind of piece that makes a home feel collected, not decorated — useful, beautiful, and full of story.
Because each blanket is made from vintage handwoven textile, no two are exactly alike. Once this one sells, this exact piece will not be available again.

This product is made with handmade, upcycled fabric. We believe the minor imperfections associated with vintage fabric are part of the charm and uniqueness of the item. We do our best to take photos that accurately represent the true colors and worn nature of the handwoven fabric, but colors vary across monitors, and photos can’t highlight all aspects of a product.
