The henequen fiber, a native agave from the Yucatan peninsula, has been used by the Mayans since pre-Hispanic times for its resistant and durable composition. Sewn henequen is one of the techniques that arises from the use of this material, where wet and combed fibers are rolled circularly forming layers that are sewn together to build everyday objects.
