For three generations, we have passionately carried on the tradition of artisan weaving. Every step of production — from the selection of natural yarns to the creation of Jacquard fabrics, including cutting and sewing — takes place entirely in our weaving workshop in Gagliano del Capo, in the heart of Salento.
