ABOUT THIS PIECE

This fan is hand woven; each detail makes it unique. Crafted from the Palma de Iraca natural fiber native from the Andes region- structured yet more refiend that rafia - it is hand-dyed and sun-dried to develop its vibrant colors. It is woven by the millenary artisans from Sandona, Nariño.

THE ADORNING CHARM

Your Fan is adorned with an astonishingly intricate charm. A pink shell, entirely hand woven by the same artisanal community that weaves the fan – it is both delicate yet sturdy. Details to be admired all around this volumetric shell– it is the finishing touch that makes our fans so distinctively special.

THE DRAMATIC POMPOM

The XXL pompoms that hang both so elegantly and playfully, are hand crafted by our master pompon weaver in Bogota, Colombia. She has been weaving pompoms for over 30 years and is a master in her craft.
