It was made in Patzcuaro, Mexico. I was handmade in manual looms. The material used is acrylic fabrics and the coloring is done manually. Acrylic materials keep the colors better and does not shrink when washed. It is easy to clean, the dirt is easily taken away. It is iron-able. You can wash it on a washer machine but do not dry it on a machine, as it will shrink!
