This handmade fair trade challah cover reflects the traditional brocade designs of huipiles, the traditional shirts worn by indigenous women in Guatemala. Brocaded in natural white on white, the challah cover is woven by hand on treadle foot looms using cotton thread. This Guatemalan challah cover is produced under fair trade conditions by women who proudly weave it for use in your home. By purchasing this challah cover, you are helping a woman care for her family, and you are helping community development happen through the economic development of women, who otherwise have limited ways to participate and contribute to the economic health of their communities. A beautiful mitzvah to inspire and enhance your Shabbat and holiday experience.
