Chak Chel


Chak Chel Chak Chel is an accessories design house that draws its inspiration from ancient Mayan culture and other exotic imagery. Chak Chel merges traditional Mayan patterns with contemporary silhouettes to create truly unique and beautiful handbags. Their products are handcrafted from vintage Huipils, customary Mayan garments, to create individual pieces that cannot be re-produced. Their pieces allude to sensations of finery and grandeur, strength and wisdom; destiny and passion. Chak Chel's aesthetic is limitless in its creativity and innovation.

Chak Chel's goal is to not only design stylish and avant-garde handbags, but to also preserve the art of weaving through their work. Chak Chel works directly with the Guatemalan community in order to improve their infrastructure.
