Description
Hand Stitched Panama Small Mola Fair Trade Latin American Textile Art
Hand Stitched by Indigenous Artisans: TraderBrock’s Molitas are handsewn by indigenous Guna artisans in Panama. Each piece is unique due to its handcrafted nature.
What is a Molita? A Mola is a handmade textile traditionally part of the women's clothing of the Guna people from Panama and surrounding regions. Molas can be used as wall art, pillows, bedspreads, place mats, or quilting fabric.
Traditional Construction & Design: Molas use a reverse appliqué technique with layers of colored cloth. Designs often feature geometric patterns inspired by rainforest wildlife and ancient body paintings.
Empowering Native Artisans: Since 1991, TraderBrock supports Panamanian indigenous artisans by providing a global market and reinvesting sales into their communities.
