【What is a Mola?】 Molas are traditional textile art created by the Kuna people, an indigenous group living in the San Blas Islands of Panama and the Caribbean Sea. The fabric itself is also called a mola. Molas are a form of folk art made entirely by hand using only a needle and thread, without the use of sewing machines or other machinery. 【About the Product】 This mola is meticulously sewn, using two pieces of black and red fabric as a base. It features a bird motif, with a symmetrical bird design created using many colorful fabrics, resulting in vibrant colors. The distinctive feature of this mola is the exquisite use of red and black. In particular, the unique spiral pattern of the red mola is finished with almost uniform line widths, making it a fascinating piece that is never boring to look at. In addition, the bird's feathers are carefully finished with fine blanket stitches, making this a piece that truly showcases the beauty of Panamanian molas.
