Árbol de Viento

From the beginning we were interested in the creation of a line of products that honored the ancient tradition of palm weaving that, to this day, is part of the artistic heritage of the indigenous peoples of Oaxaca. Our goal was to assist this group of migrant artisans to improve their living conditions as well as preserve their endangered traditional artisanal techniques. Our project is growing. Now we have an organized group of indigenous palm weavers in the Oaxacan mountains. The artisans weave the palm parts of our products in their own communities and send them to us in León, where we manufacture the hand-bags. They don´t have to leave their own home land in order to have a job.
