    The Servilleta Escalera Felipa napkins are handwoven on a traditional backstrap loom in Chiapas, carrying with them the history and symbolism of Indigenous design. The escalera (stair-step) motif represents continuity and growth, while the barro hue, derived from natural dyes, adds warmth and earthiness to the table.

    Sold as a set of three, these napkins bring a cultural narrative into daily dining rituals. Their versatile scale makes them ideal for table settings, layering with other textiles, or gifting as artisanal keepsakes. Subtle variations in weave and tone speak to the individuality of each handmade piece.

    About the Region

    Made in Collaboration with Colorindio & Artisans from Pantelhó, Chiapas

    Based in Mexico, this textile collective is dedicated to preserving and elevating Indigenous weaving traditions. Founded with the mission of sustaining artisan communities, it works directly with weavers in Chiapas, Oaxaca, and the Yucatán. Families continue centuries-old techniques, weaving on backstrap and pedal looms and dyeing threads with natural pigments like indigo, cochineal, and local plants.

    Each piece carries with it ancestral stories, rituals, and daily life. Depending on scale and complexity, a single textile can take weeks or even months to complete. The rhythm of weaving echoes the values of patience and care. By working exclusively with natural fibers and dyes, these communities honor both the environment and the integrity of traditional techniques.
