Once used as a primary form of communication, record keeping, and religious ceremonies in many villages in Mexico, amate art is traditionally handcrafted using paper pulp made from sustainable and eco-friendly tree bark. Each piece of amate paper often takes one Artisan several days to complete.
Your Flower Amate Art purchase includes a coordinating natural-colored mat. Together, your amate paper art and included coordinating mat are designed to fit into a 12" x 12" frame. Every purchase supports families living in areas of extreme poverty in Mexico.
Every product has variations as a part of the Artisan-made charm!
