Around the world, weavers take part in a millennia-old tradition handed down through generations to create intricate, beautiful textiles to make their own clothing and to sell in the marketplace. Often, their weaving skills are heavily relied on as a source of income to provide for their families.
In Guatemala, we met weavers using these ancient techniques that incorporate locally sourced cotton, natural dyes,
and hand-spun threads to make beautiful, high-quality textiles.
Weavers engage in this craft using their comprehensive knowledge and skills to create beautiful cloth.
The 615 Handwoven Company was created to help enhance economic opportunities for
weavers and their families in the highlands and rural communities of Guatemala.
By purchasing material directly from weavers and their co-operatives, we help ensure they receive sustainable wages, and through our clothing line, enhanced opportunities to help support their families. Our clothing is sewn in Nashville, TN
in collaboration with local business partners to provide employment opportunities in our community.
While our story began in Guatemala, it doesn’t end there. The 615 Handwoven Company is actively expanding its scope to support weavers globally.
We have recently incorporated hand-woven material from Peru and China into our design lineup. Your purchase helps us spread our mission to create a world-wide brand supporting weavers globally.
