Handmade Vintage Huipil Bucket Bag

Artisan-Made from Upcycled Mayan Huipiles

This one-of-a-kind huipil bucket bag is handcrafted in Guatemala from a vintage Mayan huipil—the traditional handwoven blouse worn by Indigenous women. Instead of letting these beautiful textiles fade away, our partners at Cuero Malec, a small Guatemalan leather workshop, carefully upcycle each huipil into a durable, ethically made bag.

Sustainable. Handwoven. Full of Story.

Every textile is woven by hand on a backstrap loom, then transformed into a modern bucket-style leather tote using sustainably sourced, vegetable-tanned nubuck leather. The result is a bag that blends traditional Mayan artistry with high-quality craftsmanship you can carry every day.

Because each huipil is unique, no two bags are ever the same — a truly one-of-a-kind piece of wearable art.
