"Since the theme of this wall hanging is friendship, we have portrayed two people looking straight into each others' eyes. We included a tree between them, because friendship is like a plant that needs nurturing everyday so that it may grow and blossom, and not wither away. We've also included birds around them because friendship is a relationship of freedom: no strings attached, and no negative judgments," say the women of Maya Traditions as they explain the symbolism within this wall hanging. They weave the brown cotton wall hanging on a backstrap loom, the powerful message underscored by Maya artistry. Includes a pinewood display rod.

Titled "Amistad" in Spanish.
