Who made it?

The artisans behind your product

Our partner

A fair-trade certified collective of 250 artisans in Addis Abeba is working around the various tasks of weaving products: from sourcing the locally-grown cotton, spinning it by hand, to weaving and adding the finishing stitches to it. The woman-led social enterprise pioneers an impactful movement to revive Ethiopian Heritage crafts.

Noble raw materials

The cotton is grown in Ethiopia and locally sourced, ensuring a low carbon footprint. With over 100 spinners working from home, the work allows mothers to generate a much-needed income.

Soft threads

Depending on the woman who spun the thread, it will be a little thinner or thicker and give your product that softness and human touch, which has long disappeared in our marketplaces, even from premium or luxury brands.

Warp & Weft

All the looms are operated fully manually (also involving the feet!). While typical ethiopian weavers would work on 2-harness looms creating flat weaves, some of our partners' weavers work with 4 or 8 harness looms, meaning they craft with 8 feet peddles! There are so many innovative weaving techniques and patterns - the artisans are involved in developing and creating new collections.
