Mayan Gods are frequently depicted with jaguar attributes. The jaguar is said to have the ability to cross between worlds, as represented by daytime and nighttime. The world of the living and the earth are associated with the day, while and the spirit world and the ancestors are associated with the night.
Each Bag is a piece of a handwoven huipil blouse that was once worn by a Mayan woman from the Guatemalan highlands. Pieces of these treasured textiles are used to make modern bohemian clutch bags.
