Chulel Room

Junior Suite

Chulel Room

Chulel means Spirit or Soul in the Tsotsil language. Delight your Soul in our comforting Junior Suite room.

Description

The Chulel Room has a loft with wooden floors and ceilings, an ideal space to accommodate a king size bed and a small space dedicated to relaxation. On the first floor: a living room with a desk, natural light, a small room and special plants for interiors that favor a purer environment.

Chulel’s clothing is inspired by the costume worn every day by the inhabitants of the community of San Andrés Larráinzar, so its decoration transports us directly to the heart of the Tsotsil culture.

In San Andrés, the artisan technique of the backstrap loom is used, which consists of a mecapal – a belt that the weaver adjusts to her body, where colorful threads are interwoven with cotton threads to fill the textiles with life.

Community Textile

The women weavers of “Los Altos” in the state of Chiapas have represented, for thousands of years, a great cultural wealth, portrayed in the iconography of their handwoven textiles, which are considered one of the most laborious, interesting and important of the world.

The different techniques of weaving on a backstrap loom, as well as the different prehispanic brocades, that represent the mayan worldview of the universe, are the hallmark of every ethnic group. Each one expresses itself in terms of its own evolution and idiosyncrasy.

The backstrap loom woven fabrics have subtle vertical lines, combined with diamond-shaped brocades aligned diagonally. Because of this technique the women weavers of this community are considered one of the most modern and avant-garde in textile art.

In Casa Lum we contribute to fair trade, acquiring and promoting the trade of handmade textiles manufactured by artisans from Chiapas communitieS who work in groups under this premise.
