Uxmal Stool
-
Description
Stone carving was one of the greatest artistic expressions of the ancients Mayans. Using representative Yucatan stones such as conchuela, ticul, and Mayan cream, Taller Maya’s craft-masters elaborated this piece in collaboration with designer Xavier Lorand. The Uxmal stool carries the wisdom and talent of Mayan culture and reflects its relevance in contemporary design. The Uxmal Stool is one of the results of the Visión y Tradición residence program led by Design Week México and México Territorio Creativo.
History and culture have their place in the present. Taller Maya is a Mexican collective design brand made up by a multidisciplinary creative team that collaborates with artisan social companies established in the Yucatan Peninsula, working for the promotion and development of the Mayan culture. We are a platform for social and economic development, which is why we work together with artisan social companies to strengthen formal value chains and to generate sustainable sources of income for the rural Mayan communities of the Yucatan Peninsula, all of these through the creation and commercialization of artisan pieces with historical and cultural value. In Taller Maya we work to integrate and generate access to the global market for artisan social companies under fair trade conditions, and for the recognition of the importance of the Mayan culture.
