Estuardo Cofino

"I feel proud to represent one of Guatemala's textile traditions, because the world deserves to know about the beautiful things our culture has to offer."

"Though I was born in Guatemala City and brought up in Peten, birthplace of Maya civilization. I think that growing up... in Peten made me develop a special connection with nature and experience it as a part of me. I believe nothing compares to the sounds of the jungle, especially at night.

"Thanks to my parents I've learned everything about handicrafts and I find interesting how today's artisans continue to use the type of tools and techniques developed by the ancient Mayas.

"My older brother and I decided to start working together more or less in 2010, guided by the idea of creating weaves that would be somewhat different since there is a great opportunity to work on the textiles of my country, which are renowned worldwide. And that's how we decided to start with hammocks and hammock swings.

"My first items were white hammocks using the natural color of the threads, and then we began to weave them in different colors, always making sure we made improvements where needed, according to what people were looking for. Throughout this time I've learned a lot and have had many great experiences.

"I'll never forget what it felt like to sell the first hammock I made – it was like my first love! The people who know me would tell you I'm quite the enthusiast and charismatic, as well as a go-getter. I love to practice sports, study and go out with my friends. I am a man of simple means that enjoys life just as it is, and has a positive outlook on life. I have faith in everything I undertake.

"I feel very proud of what we have achieved so far. I'm involved in every step from designing the hammock and choosing the colors of the threads and pinewood. It feels amazing to see how something that began as an idea in my head becomes a finished product.

"My designs are unique and subject to strict procedures of quality control – that makes each hammock and swing so special. That's why I can assure Novica customers that our products are crafted with the best possible materials. I believe you'll never regret getting a hammock or swing, because it is one of the best ways to relax and release stress.

"I feel proud to represent one of Guatemala's textile traditions, because the world deserves to know about the beautiful things our culture has to offer."

FINDING YOUR SIZE

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

Measure around the base of the neck keeping the tape measure comfortably loose.

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.

Triple 'Win' Pricing

UNICEF Market offers triple win pricing, where YOU the consumer, Children from around the world, and Artisans all benefit.

WIN # 1 You Save!

Handmade goods from developing nations usually pass through a series of intermediaries before being purchased by retail consumers. Each of these intermediaries adds cost to the product, and that cost is passed on to the customer. UNICEF USA partnered with NOVICA, who works directly with artists through their regional offices in Asia, Africa and Latin America, allowing purchases from UNICEF Market to go directly from the artisans to fulfilling customer orders. By skipping steps in the traditional supply chain, you can buy high quality items for less than the regular retail prices.

WIN # 2 Children Benefit!

Each item purchased from UNICEF Market will benefit UNICEF's programs that provide lifesaving nutrition, medicine, education, clean water, emergency relief and more to children in need.

You can learn more about UNICEF's work, on About UNICEF.
