Hedwig was one of Harry's closest companions until her death in the Battle of the Seven Potters. This design is a tribute to Harry's beloved friend. A beautiful rainbow mixed with white to represent the snowy owl, Hewig's Rainbow is woven with a bold, black weft in Girasol's standard twill weave.
We originally planned to go on a journey in Central America for 6 month, but it grew into a 2 years stay.
There remains among us a lasting affection for the region and a special loveof the Indians of Guatemala.
We started selecting cloth, textiles and handicrafts on the markets of the Guatemalan highlands to sell them in Mexico and later in Germany.
Our shop in Berlin opened 1984.
Through our continous stays in Mexico and Guatemala, we developed friendly relations to the families of the weaver and artisans.
The collaboration with the artisans is based on fair trade with the guarantee of continous orders.
