I guarantee each mola to be Superb quality and perfect condition.

I know that sometimes it is difficult to find a website that sells art and trust right away, without having more information and enough confidence. Here is how you can buy with confidence from us: You can leave all your worries behind and find what customers are saying about our products under "Feedbacks or Guestbook", also the first thing you should know is that we are part of Artspan.com the largest website for artist, more than 3,000 artist and that Artspan is also top ranked #1 in Google.

We offer a free shipping on all our products within the United States, we have priced all items according to the work and quality on each mola, some are more expensive than others, specially the ones with the triangle cuts, the work is very complicated and time consuming on these molas. Keep in mind that every mola you buy from us will make a big change on the lives of the kuna mola makers, the Kunas deserve to be paid well for all the effort and work that they put into each piece of art, they spent day-night sewing, and that's exactly what we do... paying them well will insured that they will have enough money to solve their needs and their communities can prosper, also one of my best Kuna friends has been working with communities to support their childrens in need and we donate at the end of each year school supplies to support many of the kids, when I travel to Panama I buy all school supplies in the city and then is taken to them, otherwise my mon or sister will make the arrangements to deliver the supplies, recently I start donating fabric, thread, zipper and other supplies to the Kunas it goes to the islands. The Kunas don't have much, but they are thankful for what they have.
