Welcome to Mayan Bags!

Welcome to Mayan Bags, a UK-based website selling beautiful handcrafted Guatemalan Mayan bags! The bags we sell are recycled from the colourful blouses and dresses that Guatemalan Mayan women traditionally wear which are made in an “eco-friendly” way. Every bag that we sell on is one-of-a-kind – some may feature similar designs or patterns, but if you look a little closer, each has been crafted in a slightly different way meaning no one else will ever have the same bag as you!

Purchasing these items also supports local communities in Guatemala by helping supplement the income of those making the handicrafts. Not only can you own a wonderfully distinctive and truly unique bag that we know you’ll love, but you are also helping the economy of the Guatemalan Mayan people. We hope that this website will also allow you to learn a bit more about the country of Guatemala and the Guatemalan Mayan people.

“My bag is really beautiful – I get so many compliments about it all the time!” H. T., Buyer
