Hand-Woven Fabrics

  • This decorative panel in silk and cork, which revives the motif of the shawl that this atelier crafted especially for Miriam Makeba, is an evident tribute to this internationally renowned artist.

  • This silk necklace is dyed and hand-made in a balanced composition of petals and flower shades. This careful work is a unique piece of craftsmanship.

  • This taperstry features a cotton warp and ecru wool woof, woven with the a pibiones technique, with flower marquetries. The central flower is woven with cotton and a precious silk brocade.

Il settore

The handicraft production based on the valorisation of textiles is robust, distinctive and successful, connected to the use of traditional weaves featuring beautiful embroideries or decorative and pictorial elements.
Aimed at crafting functional and decorative artefacts to be exhibited and worn, it reinterprets tradition with impressive stylistic solutions, evocative and contemporary at the same time. Traditional themes and symbols intertwine and are investigated and explored.
 
Precious fabrics transform, traditional forms acquire new functions, embroidery techniques open up to new possibilities, turning into workshop-specific crafting techniques and distinctive features. The result is a production of unique and charismatic objects, one's privilege to possess.
