Recognitions and Awards
Since we started in 2007, we have not stopped investigating, deepening and expanding knowledge in the different techniques of artisan weaving, natural fibers and their finishes. Our trajectory, the way of weaving and our innovative approach to treating this millenary trade, has been recognized with different awards and recognitions, by different public and private organizations.
