The techniques used for Matsigenka textile products are reserved for women only and are transmitted from one generation to the other within the same family.
Their iconography is woven into geometric designs whose patterns are woven depending on the story being told, using a base of four colours: white, cream, brown and pink; the pigments are derived from plants and tree barks. Their designs can often represent whether the person is married or single, to personality features or individual tastes. For small products such as bracelets, wooden hand looms are used, while for larger pieces like cushmas or handbags, back strap looms are utilized.
