Make a bold, meaningful statement with this striking framed Mayan textile—an art piece that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern design. The textile comes from a vintage Mayan huipil, handwoven in Guatemala, and is carefully stretched over a 16" x 20" canvas to highlight every intricate pattern and vibrant thread.

It’s then framed in a black floater frame that creates just the right amount of depth and contrast, letting the textile appear to “float” within the frame. The finished piece measures 17.5" x 21.5" and is ¾" deep, offering a clean, contemporary profile that works beautifully on its own or as part of a curated gallery wall.

Thoughtfully finished by Afghan refugee artisans in Greensboro, NC, this piece brings together heritage, craftsmanship, and purpose—ready to hang and ready to become the conversation starter of your space.

More About the Artisan...

OUR AFGHAN FRIENDS arrived in Greensboro, North Carolina in 2021 from Afghanistan, fleeing the country as refugees when the Taliban resumed power. We cannot use their names because some family members remain in Afghanistan. In Greensboro, they have quickly adjusted to their new lives and have found various jobs to provide additional support to their family. They use their expert seamstress abilities to assemble Intertwined's mixed-textile handmade throw pillows, combining fabrics (vintage and new) from various countries with our signature hemp fabric. They also create our stunning handmade bags from upholstery fabric that would otherwise end up in the landfill.
