Zacoalco de Torres
Mexico
Zacoalco de Torres, a town in Jalisco's Lagunas region, is the primary production centre for equipal furniture — a traditional Mexican style made from woven wooden rods with leather seats and backs, sometimes woven palm. Around 450 families in the municipality depend on making equipales and handcrafted chairs, a craft that defines the local economy alongside agriculture and commerce. The town sits within a short drive of Guadalajara, Jalisco's state capital.
