Tilil Mat

Tilil, Chiapas


Hand-woven wool rug on a backstrap loom by the Tilil Chamula group , originally from Tilil in the state of Chiapas. The piece has traditional embroidery with the technique known as “filled stitch with outline”, which represents the vegetation and landscapes of the Chamula environment. It has tassels or pompoms on the four edges, as a final decoration and can be used as a piece of textile decoration on any surface. Encouraging the use of handmade textiles revitalizes the value of traditional textiles.

It is suggested to dry clean or hand wash, without scrubbing for care.
