Textiles demonstrate Mexico's cultural diversity. Hammocks are also an essential part of life in the region and are available in a wide array of color combinations and fabrics. Traditional Mayan dresses (or huipiles) and shawls (rebozos), as well as men's embroidered cotton shirts (guayaberas) and tightly woven Panama hats (genuine ones are made in Ecuador) are typical souvenirs of the Yucatan peninsula and Quintana Roo. Mexican handicrafts are among the most sought-after items here, and you'll be able to choose from a large assortment of works by artisans from nearly everywhere in the Country. Leather goods, including shoes, boots, belts, purses and luggage reflect Mexico's proud tradition of a fine craftsmanship and its high quality. Reproductions of ancient native handicrafts, including jewelry, stone carvings, wooden masks and semiprecious-stone sculptures are all good souvenirs. Colonial-style items include filigree jewelry, lacework and wood furniture. Pottery items cover everything from unglazed clay pieces to beautiful stoneware crockery. T-shirts are everywhere, for everything. Inspect them carefully to distinguish the rags from quality t-shirts. To Cozumel Shopping Home
