Flowers of Comalapa Zigzag Motif Handwoven Cotton Backpack from Guatemala
Inspired by the vibrant flowers in the Comalapa region of Guatemala, Mirian Otzin designs this fashionable backpack.

The bag's main flap opens with a belt buckle, revealing a drawstring closure that opens to a cotton-lined interior with a zipper pocket on one side for storing small items.
- materials: 100% cotton, polyester synthetic suede; cotton lining
- Adjustable strap(s)
- Hand-crafted item -- color, size and/or motif may vary slightly
