XL hammock “Rasta”

The product you are currently viewing has been handcrafted by talented artisans. Our XL "Rasta" hammock, from fair trade, is the result of a meticulous process, which begins with the twisting of cotton threads to form thicker and more resistant strands. Then these strands are woven by hand on a loom to create the hammock canvas.

National flags, for example, carry specific color combinations that often represent national ideals and aspirations.

For example, religious holidays may include colorful parades, processions, and symbolic ornaments that use specific colors.
