Native Cocoa /NGOimpact

We join together for the benefit of the Tsotsile embroidery masters and their families from Huixtán.
Aware of the inequality that exists in the Native Peoples of the area, we intertwine our work through the design and production of a collection of embroidered jewelry inspired by the cocoa plant, which is sacred in the Mayan culture.

“Chocolate Essence Embroidered Jewelry Collection”

The healing qualities of cocoa go beyond the culinary. Its essence lies in the comforting heat of a cup of chocolate and its ability to awaken joy and dispel sadness. Just as the magic of cocoa has been a remedy for the spirit, this collection of embroidered jewelry seeks to encapsulate that healing energy in each piece.

Each piece of jewelry, more than just an ornament, is a tangible reminder of the sweetness that can flourish even in the coldest moments of life.
