Zapotec DesignsEvery authentic Zapotec weaving offered by La Fuente Imports has been dyed and loomed by hand in the ancient village of Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca (southern Mexico). Each family in the village produces just one or two unique designs of high quality and durability, with most members of the family participating in some way. Sorting, spinning, dyeing, and weaving are all done in the home using predominantly traditional, organic dye materials, and all natural shades of wool. The weavings available from La Fuente Imports were chosen for the strength of the weave, quality of the dyes, complexity of the design, and the expression of warmth and cultural spirit.Most of our Zapotec designs are available in pillow covers, rugs of many sizes plus coasters and runners.
