Recientemente entrelazamos nuestra labor a través del diseño y la producción de una colección de joyería bordada inspirada en la planta del cacao que en la cultura maya, es sagrada.

The launch of Juxta By and Cacao Nativa resulted in 14 pieces of jewelry, which were inspired by the sacred fruit of Cacao and were created by 12 master Tsotsil artisans from Bochilté, Huixtán, Chiapas, Mexico. 

Through this artistic and design strategy, we seek to promote and highlight traditional embroidery practices in the highlands of Chiapas, while generating a positive economic impact on the community of Bochilté, Huixtán.
