Woven hot pad (trivet) and center piece - black with purple diamond figures
This elegant design of a chambira palm fiber hot pad (trivet) and center piece is based on a traditional Bora pattern element called a coco (diamond shape) made by artisans from the village of Brillo Nuevo on the Ampiyacu River. Its embroidered coco purple figures contrast beautifully with the black background colored with natural plant dyes. Please remember that each item is hand-made and may vary somewhat from the photo of its model.

Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
