Woven hot pad (trivet) and center piece with black and yellow bands
This hot pad and center piece was designed by Bora artisan Milda Quevare from the village of Puca Urquillo Bora on the Ampiyacu River. It features a natural off-white chambira palm fiber background with concentric rings of black and yellow colored with natural plant dyes. Like all hand-made crafts, its exact design may vary from the photo of the model.

Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
