"Panikua paja" (straw in Purépecha) refers to handicrafts made with wheat straw, especially in the lake region of Pátzcuaro, Mexico. Wheat straw, called "popotillo" in Purépecha, is the primary material for creating various figures and decorative objects. Purépecha artisans have passed down this ancestral art from generation to generation, using weaving and assembly techniques to create unique works.
