Textiles

Picture

Oaxaca and the surrounding villages are the source for most of our textiles.

Tablecloths and matching hand towels are hand loomed of 100%, locally sourced cotton. Women and children’s clothing are cotton and embroidered by hand. Many of our textiles are woven on a 'back strap loom' and often using natural vegetable and mineral dyes.

Carpets are woven of 100% wool using vegetable and mineral dyes on large looms. Wool carpets are washable in cold water.  We buy our carpets from the same Zapotec family every year, a family that we have decided provides the best quality designs, materials and workmanship.
