Embroidered mask Istmo de Tehuantepec.

Latest market find!

These beautiful masks were made in Oaxaca, in el Istmo de Tehuantepec and feature beautiful embroidered flowers like the Tehuanas wear.

Every mask is one of a kind so we can not guarantee what embroidery you will receive.

Masks are made of a double layer of cotton and have a pocket for filter insert. They come with elastic adjusters.

We donated 30% of the first  batch to "Grupo de mujeres 8 de Marzo" in Juchitan, Oaxaca. They are a local organization that helps women and children victims of domestic violence.

On this new batch we will reinvest 30% of the proceeds to buy yarn, hoops and other embroidery materials for the artisans that make them. A way to reinvest funds in the community of the artisans of Juchitan embroidering the masks.

Hand wash only in cold water with detergent and vinegar. Air dry only.
