We find beautiful Huipils worn by Indigenous tribes, woven and printed fabrics by artists in various countries and embroidered by locals with techniques used for centuries.

Made By Hand. Re-Purposing ART
Worldly-Findings was conceived by the inspiration from discovering textiles and artistic workmanship of various cultures. After traveling to Guatemala and other parts of the world, I was enthralled by the craftsmanship, heritage and tradition I encountered from village to village. I realized that in our fast-moving world, somehow we had lost our appreciation for the artistic and simplistic way of life presented by these amazing textiles.
I want to share this wonderful art and show how this eclectic mix of artisan made goods blend together in traditional and modern design for your home.
Rather than hanging art on our walls, these unique huipil pillows can be used in your home décor and appreciated in your everyday life.
It takes only one pillow to change the look of your space!
Coming Soon
Worldly-Findings Products come from many countries. The pillows in particular, are unique in that no two are alike, even from the same family of textile. They work well as a single accent piece or as a color coordinated grouping...with each being from another part of the world!
Huipils are sold in their Original Form and hung on any wall in your Home!
