The Yaxa Collection
Meet Yaxa, our sister brand and a proud part of the La Matera family - led by Bobbi, wife of our owner and CEO, JM. Yaxa celebrates the artistry of the same Guatemalan weavers who create the hand-loomed fabrics featured in La Matera’s belts, now reimagined through a different lens. Each piece is woven by hand, blending tradition, texture, and timeless style - crafted to complement the spirit of La Matera, yet with a story all its own.
About Yaxa
We’ve got some exciting news to share. Over the past few months, we’ve officially welcomed Yaxa into the La Matera family.
At its core, this partnership is about something that’s been part of our story since day one — celebrating craftsmanship, culture, and connection through the hands of incredible artisans. Yaxa has been doing just that in Guatemala for years, creating handwoven belts and fine accessories that honor their heritage and the people behind each piece.
While everything we do at La Matera is a true partnership between the two of us, Bobbi will be at the helm of Yaxa, continuing to build on the beautiful brand that the Yaxa team has created to date. Together, our goal is to expand our belt offering while shining an even brighter light on the artistry, color, and craftsmanship coming out of Guatemala.
Every Yaxa belt tells a story — one of family, tradition, and the timeless connection between the maker and the wearer. We couldn’t be prouder to carry their work here on La Matera and help share that story with you.
We hope you’ll take a moment to explore the Yaxa Collection below — and maybe find a piece that feels like part of your own story.
We appreciate you riding with us,
JM & Bobbi
