The jipijapa fabric, made from a plant native to the tropical areas of the American continent, began to appear in Campeche around the year 1800. Artisans collect the jipi to prepare its fibers to obtain different thicknesses. This fiber is woven in a humid environment and the process depends on the fineness of the fabric, which can take from a week to a month.
Stone carving, from miniature pieces to monumental ones, was one of the greatest artistic expressions of the ancient Maya. Today, artisans keep this technique alive using stones like the Maya cream, representative of the Yucatan peninsula, with which they create unique pieces with unparalleled finishes.
