Artisans of Bolivia
Artisans from the Alto Plano regions of Bolivia use centuries-old indigenous techniques, including pedal loom weaving and detailed hand crochet and hand embroidery to create these hand embellished home textiles. Here, traditional hand work is combined with natural materials and fresh design concepts to create a unique collection of home décor and personal accessories. Fair wages set by the artisans themselves generate a sustainable income source that supports families in staying together on their land and in community development projects such as updating water systems and improving housing and education.
