Merchandise with Meaning
SAM & NALA offers goods from around the globe, handmade by artisan entrepreneurs. Members of a women’s cooperative in the highlands of Guatemala wove the material for this Fireside Chat dog bandana and matching mask, which Estefany (shown here) sewed in her family’s shop in Chichicastenango. By setting their own prices, weavers and sewers are able to carry on their creative traditions while earning fair wages. Bandanas come in small, medium and large, and in multiple patterns.
