Description

Product Story

Andino Basket has been handcrafted by women artisans in the department of Nariño(southwestern Colombia) using traditional weaving techniques passed down from generation to generation.

Iraca straw gained international recognition thanks to the famous Panama Hats. The natural shine and flexibility of this fiber, provide an elegant finish to this mythical hat, and any piece made with it.

Iraca, also called Toquilla, is today one of the most widely used materials in the manufacture of handicrafts in Colombia because it grows in most parts of Colombia.

This fiber is also used in the manufacture of clothing accessories and as a roofing construction and thermal insulation material in warm areas. Iraca is a multifaceted plant that is even used as food in regions of harvest!

Fill your home with history and bohemian elegance with these unique pieces.
