Culture. Heritage. Tradition.

Our goal is to support traditional cultures, and the communities they call home.

Every piece we bring in is designed and handmade by traditional artisans from quality, locally-sourced materials.

I seek out traditional artisans in developing countries, particularly ones whose art is at risk of dying out, and I bring their work to the US for sale. I also document the culture and history associated with each craft and make videos of the production process. These include: Mopa mopa - A 1000 year old Andean tradition of decorating wood carvings with the resin of the mopa mopa tree in a technique a bit like mosaic work. Tamo de Pasto - laying down fine strands of straw to make colorful patterns on woodwork Traditional masks from Sibundoy - Ancestral masks carved from wood and decorated with colorful beads from the Kamsa people of the Sibundoy valley Silver filigree jewelry - Hand made filigree work from Mompox Palm mats - traditional woven palm mats for tables and floors from Chimichagua.

A lot of these crafts don't have western equivalents.
