Each Mayan Belt is a one-of-a-kind piece, handcrafted by artisans who are descendants of the Mayan people. Woven cotton panels feature traditional Mayan-inspired motifs, each pattern carrying symbolic meaning rooted in ancestral design language.
Finished with supple leather, hand-braided edging, and a solid leather buckle, these belts are made slowly and intentionally. No two are alike. Variations in color, pattern, and texture are a natural part of the craft and what make each belt truly unique.
Because every belt is handcrafted and truly one of a kind, the belt you receive may show slight differences from the one photographed. Each size is made individually, and small variations in pattern placement, color tones, or leather detailing are part of the artisanal process and the beauty of owning an OOAK piece.
Designed to be worn as both a functional accessory and a cultural statement, the Mayan Belt pairs effortlessly with denim, dresses, or layered looks, adding character and heritage to any outfit.
