ZUMOS is a team of Maya Tz’utuhil weavers from San Juan La Laguna, Guatemala, who have been working with norwegian designer Heidi Strøm, creating innovative textile products.

The collection contains low volumes of unique, handmade pieces, carefully controlled to ensure high quality, exclusive designs. We propose a collection of modern pocket products; Pocket Tablerunner, Pocket Tie, Pocket Scarf and Document Pockets.

‘Zumos’ translates to mean the qualities of strength, essence, vigour and vitality inherent, in this case, in the pieces and the women who create them. In supporting Zumos you serve to economically empower the women directly by providing them with a fair income.

Supported by SUNDAÇION SOLAR & DESIGN WITHOUT BORDERS.
