The Women Behind Yabal

WELCOME

Each Y’abal product celebrates the ancestral art of Mayan backstrap loom weaving. All Yabal fabrics are meticulously handwoven by cooperatives of indigenous women weavers in the highlands of Guatemala. We work hand in hand with over 50 artisans to create an accessories collection that blends traditional and contemporary design. Yabal is more than an accessories brand; we are a company with a mission: to empower women artisan cooperatives in rural communities of Guatemala.

OUR WORK

Our fabrics are handcrafted using the Mayan backstrap loom by cooperatives of Guatemalan Mayan artisans. Featuring ecological plant dyes, natural cotton, recycled denim threads, recycled plastic bags, and natural sheeps wool. Yabal is a Fair Trade organization dedicated to the empowerment of rural women artisans and all profits fund social programs for our weavers.
