Near the Sea Handwoven Mayan Striped Double Hammock in Brown from Mexico
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.
Please note: The accompanying extension ropes may vary in color from those shown in the images.
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.
