CAMPO DEGRADE - BUCKET BAG
AVAILABLE NOW
HAND WOVEN BY ARTISANS IN COLOMBIA
WOVEN IN BIODEGRADABLE NATURAL FIBERS
ABOUT THIS PIECE
This bucket bag is hand woven; each detail makes it unique. Crafted with a single needle, it takes more than 10,000 twists and turns of the hand to be finished. Made from 'Fique', a natural fiber unique to the Andes mountains, artisans hand dye the fiber to create such vibrant colors.
This full body embroidery fabric is signed by Jane Churchill. It features dramatic branches of haywood leaf - reminiscent of the fields of Colombia. This is why we named it CAMPO - FIELD
Heritage
This hand woven bucket bag is crafted by the ARTISTS of the Guacamayas Community in Colombia. We are proud to work along side the guardians of this millenary know-how in Colombia. Twelve hours away from the Capital of Colombia, Bogotá, we work hand in hand with these talented women, who have learned the art of 'CESTERIA DE ROLLO' from their mothers in turn. 'FIQUE', a natural fiber unique to the Andes Mountains, is hand colored to perfectly match our textiles. It is a resistant material that grows in our mountains.
These pieces are rare to find and craft, as the technique is recognized by the AOC , have a Protected Designation of Origin, and can only be produced in this small village. We care to preserve the iconography of the communities in Colombia, who transmit their vision of the world through their crafts- in this case the signature of Guacamayas (which translates to Parrot in spanish) is the vibrancy of its colors. The artisans from the Guacamayas Community are masters of Color, and we are thankful to work with them.
Sustainability
This piece is crafted entirely from biodegradable natural fibers. They are sustainably sourced - in small batch parcels; that allow the land to regenerate through alternative crops. From plant to dye - they are transformed by hand by men and women who love the FIque and treasure it as an essential core of their legacy.
