string hammock

Crafted by Costa Rica's Arrieta Roman Family artisans, this handwoven hammock chair takes comfort to a new level. Made with a dark brown laurel wood frame, its cappuccino-colored fabric with white stripes is handwoven with a blend of recycled cotton and polyester fabric trimmings reclaimed from garment factories. A row of fringe hangs from each end of the seat, and the chair back can be adjusted to four different positions.

Evoking the sparkling beauty of a sandy beach, this relaxing double nylon hammock features stripes of tan, sepia, and wheat. It is diligently handwoven by the skilled craftspeople of Maya Artists of the Yucatan.

Long before the Spanish arrived upon the coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula, the Maya preferred to sleep and rest in hammocks. They considered the hammock to be like the loving embrace of a mother, due to the comfortable manner in which the body is held and swung within its cradle. Maya Artists of the Yucatan seek to preserve time-honored customs while also offering stylized versions of the original Maya hammock. For them, the hammock is a work of art. Their hammocks are incredibly comfortable, easy to maintain, and may be stored just about anywhere.

It easily packs for travel to the beach or lake. Extender ropes (measuring 1 meter), hammock hooks ("S" hooks), and step-by-step instructions included for easy installation.

NOTE: Because each is woven individually by hand, measurements may vary by as much as ten centimeters. There may be slight color variations from hammock to hammock.

Woven by hand in beige, burgundy and mustard, this comfy cotton hammock invites a siesta. Maya Artists of the Yucatán create it in the same way they have for centuries, finishing the ends with strong loops for hanging.
