Our exclusive Girasol Sonoroa woven wrap is a tribute to the No. 4, one of the most underrated standard-line Girasol patterns. We felt the exciting handwoven ikat details of the No 4. deserved more attention, so we asked our friends at Girasol to weave up a batch in a more neutral "lichen" weft. The new name is a nod to the Sonoran desert highlands, where we picture this wrap paired with boots and blue jeans would be picture perfect.
100% cotton
Handwoven in Guatemala
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.
