Vivid Mexican colors in natural cotton distinguish this king-size hand-woven Yucatecan hammock. It molds to the contours of the body for unparalleled comfort. The Maya considered the sensation to be similar to the "loving embrace of a mother." Perfect for relaxing both indoors and out, its hanging arms are nylon for added strength, and the hammock includes ropes, hooks and a step-by-step manual for easy installation and care. Because each hammock is woven individually by hand, measurements may vary as much as 10 cm, and colors may vary slightly.
