The Weavers of Sandoná

On the mountainous Southwest region of Colombia, lies the market town of Sandoná, where weaving traditions have a rich history that spans many centuries. The town has become renowned for its skilled artisans who have mastered the art of weaving using the Iraca Palm, better known as Panama Hat straw.. This tradition has been passed down through generations of women, who gather in shared spaces to work together.

The intricate weaving technique requires great skill and precision, it results in a tight, flexible and durable weave that is used in the legendary Panana Hat, baskets and home decor items. Quiet luxury at its best, the Sandoná woven pieces are valued by many high end designers the world over.
