The komen is a wooden tool, measuring a little over 2 meters long and 5cm wide, it contains notches set on different heights that dictate the length of the fabrics to be woven. During this process, the weaver counts the spins the thread does, having to cut and bind them through knots with the different colors employed in the design. The preparation of a single thread before being placed in the loom can take up to an entire day. The length of the woven fabric in a Waist Loom is almost unlimited, however its width usually doesn’t surpass 60cms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe threads in the warp are mounted in between two horizontal wooden sticks, one of them is hooked to either a tree or a post, while the other is bound to the waist by using ropes and a belt, that is usually made from leather. The process of mounting the threads to the loom is a complicated one, which usually requires lots of experience and skill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the warp has been mounted, the artisan starts weaving the fabric’s weft using a thrower, which is a piece of wood shape as an arrow, used to roll thread around it before incorporating it to the weave. Using the wooden machete, the weft is compressed and adjusted after every turn of the thread, being aided from another two pieces in the loom: the “olibalte”, which rises the treads from the warp and the “pat akan”, which sets them downwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the canvas has been weaved, the artisan unties it from the loom’s rods, so she can apply the finishing touches. Untied threads are rolled and knotted to give a clean finish to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eVideo of the Artisan\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cCsI0iLkL1M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e","published_at":"2018-06-20T08:03:43-07:00","created_at":"2018-06-20T08:11:07-07:00","vendor":"PATRICIA HERNANDEZ CHAVEZ","type":"BACKSTRAP WEAVING","tags":["BACKSTRAP WEAVING","OAXACA","TABLECLOTHES \u0026 RUNNERS"],"price":6900,"price_min":6900,"price_max":9900,"available":true,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":8929681735743,"title":"4 Set \/ Dark Red","option1":"4 Set","option2":"Dark Red","option3":null,"sku":"BW-PHC-INDSET-COLOR-01","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Individual Table Cloths Set, Oaxacan Backstrap Weaving -

The komen is a wooden tool, measuring a little over 2 meters long and 5cm wide, it contains notches set on different heights that dictate the length of the fabrics to be woven. During this process, the weaver counts the spins the thread does, having to cut and bind them through knots with the different colors employed in the design. The preparation of a single thread before being placed in the loom can take up to an entire day. The length of the woven fabric in a Waist Loom is almost unlimited, however its width usually doesn’t surpass 60cms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe threads in the warp are mounted in between two horizontal wooden sticks, one of them is hooked to either a tree or a post, while the other is bound to the waist by using ropes and a belt, that is usually made from leather. The process of mounting the threads to the loom is a complicated one, which usually requires lots of experience and skill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the warp has been mounted, the artisan starts weaving the fabric’s weft using a thrower, which is a piece of wood shape as an arrow, used to roll thread around it before incorporating it to the weave. Using the wooden machete, the weft is compressed and adjusted after every turn of the thread, being aided from another two pieces in the loom: the “olibalte”, which rises the treads from the warp and the “pat akan”, which sets them downwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the canvas has been weaved, the artisan unties it from the loom’s rods, so she can apply the finishing touches. Untied threads are rolled and knotted to give a clean finish to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eVideo of the Artisan\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cCsI0iLkL1M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e"}

This type of clay is sifted until it becomes a very fine sand, then, water is added to form a very soft, smooth, and malleable paste. It is with this clay paste that the molding of the pieces begins, using a wheel, from which vases, flower pots, and other creations come to be.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter a piece is molded, it is left outside to dry for two to three days, being exposed directly to the sunlight for any humidity to evaporate.

The clay is strained using a mesh for eliminating impurities. The clay is then mildly de-hydrated to achieve the artisan's desired clay consistency. When a clay ball is ready, it is laid over a smooth stone, and the shaping process begins. The clay is molded into an inverted and flattened cone; as it keeps on spinning, the clay is morphed into shapes of Jaguars, Pots, Pitchers and other creations. Once the piece's shape is finished, it is left under the sun for it to dry. This is the process's critical point, because this is when the clay can break.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the pieces are finished drying under the sun, they are put on top of a dry tree branch bed, and around it, vertically-standing logs. It is then fired at 600 to 700 Degrees Celsius, enough for the clay to lose its capacity for dissolving in water. This firing technique holds a great similarity to the one ancestrally used by the Mayan People who inhabited these lands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the end, when the pieces are ready for being painted, Potters use different minerals for obtaining natural colors to apply on the pieces. By sanding some of their selected minerals, and pouring the powder into a concave rock for it to be mixed with water, these artisans achieve red, black and even yellow tones. They then take their brushes, and with great skill, start decorating jaguars, pots, pitchers, salad bowls, pigeons, and many other pieces with the intention of bringing their art directly to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout The Artisan\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0008\/7582\/3167\/files\/Margarita-Diaz-Gomez_large.jpg?v=1566336656\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargarita Diaz Gomez\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing 43 years old, she is one of the most representative Chiapas-born Artisans, creating Jaguars that easily surpass the three-feet length among other beautiful and representative pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe lives in a humble home filled with a warm and welcoming vibe to it, her doors are always open, and everyone is always well received.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargarita\u003c\/strong\u003e started working when she was just 12 years old, crafting smaller pieces and following her parents’ tradition and teachings.

The clay is strained using a mesh for eliminating impurities. The clay is then mildly de-hydrated to achieve the artisan's desired clay consistency. When a clay ball is ready, it is laid over a smooth stone, and the shaping process begins. The clay is molded into an inverted and flattened cone; as it keeps on spinning, the clay is morphed into shapes of Jaguars, Pots, Pitchers and other creations. Once the piece's shape is finished, it is left under the sun for it to dry. This is the process's critical point, because this is when the clay can break.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the pieces are finished drying under the sun, they are put on top of a dry tree branch bed, and around it, vertically-standing logs. It is then fired at 600 to 700 Degrees Celsius, enough for the clay to lose its capacity for dissolving in water. This firing technique holds a great similarity to the one ancestrally used by the Mayan People who inhabited these lands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the end, when the pieces are ready for being painted, Potters use different minerals for obtaining natural colors to apply on the pieces. By sanding some of their selected minerals, and pouring the powder into a concave rock for it to be mixed with water, these artisans achieve red, black and even yellow tones. They then take their brushes, and with great skill, start decorating jaguars, pots, pitchers, salad bowls, pigeons, and many other pieces with the intention of bringing their art directly to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout The Artisan\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0008\/7582\/3167\/files\/Margarita-Diaz-Gomez_large.jpg?v=1566336656\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargarita Diaz Gomez\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing 43 years old, she is one of the most representative Chiapas-born Artisans, creating Jaguars that easily surpass the three-feet length among other beautiful and representative pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe lives in a humble home filled with a warm and welcoming vibe to it, her doors are always open, and everyone is always well received.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargarita\u003c\/strong\u003e started working when she was just 12 years old, crafting smaller pieces and following her parents’ tradition and teachings.
