A unique collector's item, created by the hands of a woman artisan

At Hotel Mansión Iturbe, we select pieces that tell stories. This corn husk (totomoxtle) doll is a work of Mexican Folk Art that stands out for its simplicity and detail. It has been entirely handcrafted by a woman artisan from Michoacán, who imbues each fold with her knowledge and heritage.

As it is a handcrafted work, no two are alike. Each doll is a unique piece, making it an object of great value for those who love and collect authentic craftsmanship.


The Art of Meticulousness: Handwoven and Embroidered Textiles

The most impressive aspect of this piece is the time dedicated to its attire. It's not mass-produced clothing; it's a faithful representation of the traditional dress of the Purépecha Plateau:

  • Detailed Embroidery: The "guanengo" (blouse) and apron feature hand-embroidered details with a precision that can only be achieved after days of patient work.

  • Regional Textiles: The rebozo and "rollo" (skirt) are made with textiles that respect the customs and traditions of the indigenous peoples.

  • Totomoxtle Body: Molded with selected natural corn husks, creating a high-quality artisanal figure.


Female Empowerment and Green Business

In the curation of Mansión Iturbe Artisans, we buy directly from the creators. Your purchase genuinely supports the economic empowerment of women artisans, allowing them to continue being the driving force of their families and guardians of our culture.

As a green business, we promote handicrafts made with organic materials and processes that respect the environment and fair trade.
